Technological offer has also been strengthened

Inside, with the exception of the new smartphone pack, everything remains the same. The remaining innovations are related to the lighting system which, in addition to being able to turn off some LEDs so that the light beam does not reflect on traffic signals dazzling the driver, now offers the "Tourist Mode" which adjusts the beam of light as we travel in a country where you drive left or right.
