The interiors are expected to retain the majority of the elements albeit with some tweaks to the dashboard and the probable inclusion of a few new features. Expect some new trim options too, but that's about it. It is going for a minor update inside with a few tweaks necessary to make it up to the competition.
Engine Details: Churning Out The Same Horsepower
