      Distinctive covered body-colored grille frame to provide a striking visual change for the front that reflects the decreased requirement for airflow-based cooling. sharp edges and flowing curves give it a dynamic appearance. A revised front end featuring headlamps that attach straight to the radiator grille is another feature. It blends the best features of a coup? and an SUV unlike anything other.
