The SX Prestige tops the luxury range with nappa leather, ventilated front and rear seats, a 12-speaker Harman Kardon system, panoramic sunroof, and a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster — rivaling vehicles at significantly higher price points.

For buyers who want capability alongside refinement, the X-Line and X-Pro trims deliver. The X-Line blends on-road comfort with rugged styling and all-terrain tires. The X-Pro goes further with terrain-mode AWD, skid plates, and a locking rear differential — handling Carolina coastal back roads and inland trails with confidence.
