• It has a parametric jewel grill up front, flanked by a twin headlamp setup with a sleek LED daytime running lamp covering the car’s width, providing it with a prominent and futuristic appearance.
• An elevated shoulder line and sharp edges accentuate the side profile’s chiselled appearance.
• At the back are the connected LED taillight and a small spoiler lip on the boot lid, giving it a dynamic look.
