The bumper has been redesigned as well with a wider air dam and a front splitter with red highlights.

Towards the rear the car offers H-shaped LED tail lights connected by an LED light bar, a boot lid spoiler, dual exhausts, and a blacked out rear diffuser.

Globally, the car will rival the likes of the Volkswagen Jetta GLI, Toyota Camry TRD, Honda Civic Si, and the Kia K5 GT.
