This model is a complete redesign, inside and out, with improved performance and special touches. The end result is “a beautiful car for a beautiful Earth.”
A New Look

This model still offers the recognizable triangular profile with a lower hood. A low stance creates an impressive image, along with Bi-Beam LED headlamps. In the rear, a spoiler showcases the fun and sporty side of this car with the LED taillamps.
