In addition, Duster steering feedback dynamics is quite heavy, a female friend parking into place may be more inconvenient. More important, parts, power and chassis part to say, look QASHQAI can also be used, sheet metal panels on the difficult, overseas orders to China, a minimum of three months, during the epidemic may take longer.
