It gets redesigned front and rear bumper, LED headlamps with integrated daytime-running LEDs along with LED tailamps, new alloy design and a bold front grille. On the inside, it now flaunts ambient lighting with a choice of 12 colors and a new 8-inch touchscreen along with carbon fiber finishes, metal inserts and upholstery.
