Mike Costello drove this car and these were their findings:
Hits
- Petrol V8 cuts weight and adds pace, better soundtrack
- Well-finished interior with intuitive interfaces
- Air suspension's ride, good body control for a big beast
Misses
- Petrol V8 also goes backwards on torque, fuel economy
- Dust- and smudge-prone piano black interior trims
- The Dynamic package should be standard
