    Beautiful design + Spacious interior + Reasonable fuel consumption.

    Most of the safety features you can find in the market has loaded in this car.
    I should test drive this car before I buy it, I don't think I will still consider it after I make a test drive, that's my fault.

    Lousy service center, always tell you " Everything is ok" when you make complaint for certain problem.

    I am buying this Softroader for my wife`s daily commuting. Before we decided to go with the new Xtrail, we have checked with the Subaru XV and Forester, Mazda CX-5.

    Key reasons for us to buy Xtrail are；
    - Looking great, we choose the 2.5 4WD with Brilliant White which make the car looks even BIGGER. And the appearance factor made us give u[...]
    - Noisy control could be better.
    - The stereo speakers is the worst ever among all the cars I have ever owned.
    - Painting is very thin, just a very light scratch then you will see the black primer coating.
    - the Rain-sensor wiper is not working, I shall talk to the Technicians during my next service. At the first service, they said this is ho[...]

    - Superbbbbbbb handling! The steering weight is just right, not too heavy not too light. This is a tremendous job by Proton and Lotus. Handling totally on par with the European cars and way better than the Japs and Koreans.
    - High speed corner with ease
    - Spacious and comfortable

    - Noise in the cabin, bearable but can be improved.

    The exact variant I bought is the 2010 Exora MC M-Line, which is not included in the list for me to choose from.

    - Handling is very good for such a heavy MPV
    - Space is plenty!
    - Very comfortable even for long ride
    - Love how the second and third row seats can be put down flat, so you can put all sort of stuffs
    - Good air cond, can cool d[...]
    - The rim and tyre should be slightly larger
    - Fuel efficiency is very bad for city driving, so it's not a daily car for you to commute to work (but it's very good for long distance travel with your whole family)

    It's actually the replacement for M3 Coupe.
    This M4 is faster than M3 not because of it's power, it's because of its precision of handling.
    The straight 6 turbocharged engine from BMW is very impressive. Even out of my expectation.
    This car is a very fun car to drive. Its precision of handling makes it almost unbeatable at Sepang Circuit, esp[...]
    Fuel consumption is still consider high.
    Launch control is too difficult/complicated to use.
    Space at the back is quite small

    Reverse camera, very helpful when parking the tall car
    Comfortable ride and seamlessly enjoyable handling on almost all drives
    Very practical interior
    Sufficient legroom and much headroom space
    Decent quality sound from audio system
    Power delivery from pedal action command to power on the wheels lags (up to 3 secs), CVT unpredictable behaviours, in R sometimes having the need step on the gas just to get the car to move, engine revs climbing but car barely accelerating (sudden acceleration needed in emergency situations are disabled)

    - The MT variant is gimped but not badly, you lose out on the fog lamps, keyless entry and bluetooth steering controls.
    - Slight bodyroll when cornering.
    - Doesn't live up to KIA's lofty advertised fuel consumption. It's not bad, but it would've been better if KIA put a realistic number instead.
