Performance and Powertrains

  • Total System Output: 204 horsepower and 247 lb-ft of torque.
  • Drive Modes: Features Sport, Normal, Econ, and a customizable Individual mode.
  • Performance: Offers more immediate torque and a more engaging driving experience compared to the base turbo engine.

• Exterior Features:
  • An upright grille with a piano-black mesh insert.
  • LED headlights and “straight-line” LED taillights that emphasize the car’s width.
  • Wheel options ranging from 17-inch alloys to 19-inch machine-finished wheels on higher trims.

  • Connectivity: Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility.
  • Premium Audio: An available 12-speaker Bose premium sound system with Centerpoint technology.
