But the Zxi variant still comes with all the features you would need such as a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, steering mounted audio controls, automatic climate control, wireless phone charger and keyless entry with push button start. Passenger safety is taken care of by six airbags, ABS with EBD, rear parking sensors and electronic stability control.
