The updates include a new two-part grille, new LED DRLs, a sharper nose, and a revised front bumper and headlamp. At the rear, the tailgate with sleeker C-shaped lights and a full-width LED light bar, appears more elegant. A new set of alloy wheels with a dark chrome finish is available with higher-end variants.
