Production has shifted from South Korea to the Czech Republic, and the car now features a 1.5-litre mild-hybrid turbo-petrol engine, replacing the older 2.0-litre non-turbo and 1.6-litre turbo options. Only the N Line and N Line Premium variants will be available, with the base, Active, and Elite trims removed. The new model boasts updated styling, a widescreen digital cluster, and enhanced safety features. The N Line Premium is priced at $41,000, reflecting a $3700 increase over its predecessor due to tariffs and higher shipping costs.
