For that chunk a dough, you get retractable panoramic sunroof, new 19-inch alloy wheels (17-inch on the standard), Adaptive Cruise Control, electronically adjustable leather seats, automatic parking system, active park assist and collision mitigation by braking. The SE’s cabin will also benefit from multi-coloured LED ambient lighting system. Honestly, that’s an absolute steal of a package added on top of an already impressive and popular SUV.
