| The ergonomic dashboard has been designed
to maximize cabin space. The instrument cluster unit is height-adjustable with the
steering column and the remote control satelite is located to the right of the steering
wheel. Driving data are displayed at the base of the windscreen, allowing immediate access
to vital information. The Xanae comes equipped with an in-car entertainment system with
CD as well as a hands-free carphone.
Two easy-to-read display units located at the base of the windscreen present useful
information such as vehicle speed, station identity and frequency in audio mode,
destination address and location in remote guidance phase and telephone numbers in
carphone mode.
In addition to easy access, another user-friendly
feature is the modular layout of the Xanae's cabin. The designers focussed first and
foremost on making the cabin simple and convenient for family use. Mounting the automatic
transmission control on the steering wheel made it possible to leave an empty space
between the front seats, allowing them to swivel freely. Similarly, the location of the
emergency foot brake was chosen to achieve the saime aim. |

Living room
The inventive seating layout, with a left rear seat that curves around the side of
the cabin, allows the three rear-passengers to enjoy the same comfort as they would in
their own living room. Mounted on runners, the right-hand and middle seats can also be
removed. This feature combined with the fold-down back of the middle seat means that the
Xanae's cabin is entirely reconfigurable. Two further features that heighten the
impression of user-friendliness and comfort are the swivelling front seats and the choice
of upholstery and interior trim. |
