A three-section air intake harmonizes with pronounced front hood ribs, endowing the car with a vibrant sporty feel. Buyers will have an array of six alluring exterior colors to choose from: white, gray, brown, pink, blue, and black.
From a side perspective, the segmented waistline and a slightly descending window line accentuate the car's ample window space, especially noticeable behind the C-pillar. This style gives the vehicle a robust visual appeal. Its dual five-spoke wheels add a touch of contemporary fashion to its profile.
The rear adopts a multi-line design, complemented by through-type tail lights, resulting in a visually captivating hierarchy. A chrome trim strip graces the rear bumper, further refining its elegance.
