What Changed

Other exterior changes include revised headlamps/taillamps and new wheel designs. Interior changes include an updated center stack and gear shift design. Updated 1.6l and 2.0l four cylinder engines have more power. An optional ECO package adds low rolling resistance tires and start/stop functionality.
