Notable Innovations
Magic Slide Seats: Allows the two outboard second-row seats to slide sideways into multiple configurations, making it incredibly simple to reach the third row or keep young children closer to the front row.

CabinWatch & CabinTalk: Enables front occupants to look in on rear passengers using a night-vision camera and speak to them directly through their headphones or speakers.

"How Much Farther?" App: A child-friendly, cartoon-style map application on the rear entertainment screen that tracks the vehicle’s trip progress to minimize restiveness.
