The inserts and decals on the exterior add a sense of ruggedness and boldness to the exterior of the Aircross, which already is a rather tough-looking SUV. Dashcam has become an essential safety feature nowadays and is a welcome addition with this special edition. Interior illumination (footwell lighting and sill plates) accentuate the feel and experience of the cabin. For an extra Rs 27,700 over the Standard Pack, you also get a rear seat entertainment screen with dual-port adapters that further add a premium appeal to the cabin.
You will be able to download apps and watch movies on those screens – a feature that the kids will certainly relish.
