The exterior design is characterized by a low, aggressive stance, sharp lines, and a distinctive front fascia, contributing to both aesthetics and aerodynamic efficiency. Inside, the driver-focused cockpit includes supportive sport seats, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and an easy-to-read analog instrument cluster.
