In terms of car market design, this car adopts a more sporty design approach, the top line of the window is slightly inclined downwards, and the top is as parallel as possible, which can maintain a sense of movement while also increasing the rear head space. The size of the rear triangular window is not large, making the D-pillar size more wide, so from the side, the car is more compact.
The taillights are hidden in the black decorative belt, forming a penetrating visual effect, and the tail line is not used much, so the visual effect is cleaner. In terms of size, the body length, width and height are 4905/1950/1660 (1645) mm, and the wheelbase is 2960 mm, of which the wheelbase is 30 mm longer than the ideal ONE.
