From the side, it features a sportier look thanks to its sloping coupe-like roofline. What further adds to its sportiness is the squared wheel arches, side body cladding and dual-tone alloy wheels.

Its rear of this SUV-coupe feels tall and its boot lid is positioned a lot higher than the bonnet. Other design bits at the back include wraparound LED taillamps and a tall bumper with a chunky silver skid plate.
