At the rear, bold lines, a sporty wing with integrated brake lights, and faux exhaust vents frame the bumper, with an actual exhaust outlet hidden beneath. The trunk provides 420 liters of storage, expandable by folding the rear seats. Buyers can choose from five exterior colors: Blue, White, Silver, Black, and Gray.
