Enhancement of Product Appeal

Parts With Low Repair Cost





^ The parts (the bumper reinforcements, crush boxes, and the radiator support assembly) located forward of the front ends of the front side members are bolted on to reduce the repair cost of the front end of the vehicle in case of a minor collision.





^ In the rear bumper, the areas of the application of the honeycomb material have been increased. The cross section of the bumper arms has been formed into a crushable shape that provides efficient impact absorption. These features help reduce the impact that acts on the body and reduce the repair cost in case of a minor collision.

Washer Nozzle





Spray type washer nozzles are located under the engine hood to ensure good appearance. These nozzles can spray windshield washer fluid over a wide area by spraying it in a fan shape. The washer fluid volume has been reduced so as not to hinder the driver's view when washer system is operated.

Wiper Arm & Blade





The unified construction of the wiper blade and arm is used. A fin-shaped resin cover is used for the entire wiper blade. This ensures the effectiveness of the wipers even when traveling at high speeds.

Internal Trunk Release Handle





In case a person is inadvertently locked inside the trunk and needs to get out, an internal trunk release handle is included inside the luggage room.

The handle is made of phosphorescent plastic, so that it is visible in the luggage room for a while even after the luggage room door has been closed.

Child Restraint System





CRS (Child Restrain System) lower anchorage for securing child seats has been provided behind the seat cushion of the rear seat.

Three CRS anchor brackets for securing a child seat are provided above the package tray trim.
