Wireless charger is slow and you can’t really charge ur phone with your case on. Overall, infotainment is average and needs big updates. No glovebox light. No ceiling light. No car door light. Lack of storage space. Coulda easily added power buttons on the passenger side seats. Aside from that, personally my sunroof is not functioning properly and washer fluid light is on even though reservoir is full. And yes the air is super loud when it’s on high.
