The forward-looking all new luxury compact sedan can best be described as a future classic. This vehicle is ready to leave an enduring legacy, which is only achievable when progress through technology is part of the automotive design philosophy. A compact, sporty premium sedan is set apart by more than its impressive array of features, but by its compelling presence as an overall vehicle concept. This vehicle is encompassed by extraordinary handling qualities, the finest quality, and cutting-edge equipment, which is combined with sportiness, emotion and progressiveness. Progressive Design Athletic, wide and compact are the three hallmark design characteristics of this all new luxury sedan. The vehicle proportions accentuate this dynamic character with a distinctive, coupé-like design. These qualities are the result of a long arching roof contour, short luggage compartment lid and narrow window surfaces. Muscular taut surfaces, a coupé-like roof contour and wedge-shaped design lines instantly emphasise the sedan’s pronounced forward-moving stance. This focused athleticism is expressed through features such as the wide wheel arches, striking side sills and the eye-catching separating edge at the rear. All of these features are accentuated by the sedan’s compact dimensions and result in a progressive design concept. This vehicle can be summed up as a thoroughly distinctive statement of embodied sporty elegance. This sedan’s design is enhanced by its striking LED headlights, which give the vehicle its unmistakable look during the day or at night. The optional exclusive cast aluminium wheels in 5-arm wing design further bolster the dynamic character of this automotive masterpiece. Progressive Technology These new compact sedans are lighter, more agile and more efficient. Such vehicles are packed with the latest technologies from innovative auto manufacturers who have pushed design boundaries for decades. The ultra-lightweight technology that can be found in these sedans has many advantages for contemporary drivers.

The ride comfort is also enhanced and lower unsprung masses ensure smoother handling in addition to sportiness. Permanent all-wheel drive emphasises this all new luxury compact sedan’s sporty ambitions. Electronically controlled torque distribution is incorporated into this all-wheel drive system.
