Exterior
From every angle, this high-performance hatchback commands attention. Sharp, sculpted lines carve through the air, while the R-specific front bumper and rear diffuser hint at the untamed power within. Quad exhaust tips unleash an unmistakable growl, and a subtle yet striking rear spoiler adds both style and stability.
The LED light strip stretching across the grille gives it a modern, aggressive look, seamlessly blending into the sleek LED headlights. Sitting on 19-inch alloy wheels wrapped in performance tires, this machine grips the road with confidence, ready to thrill at every turn.
Finished in a range of stunning colors—including the exclusive Lapiz Blue Metallic—this isn’t just a car. It’s a statement.
