Exterior
The design of this coupe is perhaps one of its best aspects. There are many beautiful elements that will attract attention on the road. According to tradition, let’s start with the muzzle, it is attractive mainly due to its optics, these are lensed optics, the headlight is made in the shape of a long and narrow petal. The slightly sculpted hood and massive bumper with a full-width radiator grille look attractive. Round fog lights are inserted into the radiator grille.
The profile of the model has a slot in the upper part, which passes through the door opening handle. And with a small vent at the bottom, these vents not only work for looks, but also work to improve aerodynamics. The rearview mirror is large and, as befits a sports car, mounted on a base. At the rear is the fuel tank cap, which is made of polished metal.
The rear of the car has equally beautiful optics as the front, which pleases with the beautiful shape of both the headlight itself and its internal elements. There is a small spoiler installed on the trunk lid, but there is also one huge one, which is equipped with a brake light repeater. The model has a massive rear bumper with a small decorative diffuser and 2 exhaust pipes.
