One of its standout features is the Idle Stop and Go (ISG) Special Control function, which intelligently adjusts the shift pattern in congested areas, integrating navigation and vehicle driving status for optimal performance.

Standard features like the forward parking distance warning and Hi-pass, available from the Modern trim, enhance safety by reducing door-closing speed and adding a warning sound.
