- HEADLAMPS & FOG LAMPS: BRIGHT. SMART.

Available low-beam High Intensity Discharge (HID) headlamps feature bright-white beams that help mimic natural daylight and result in clear, crisp visibility.
Standard bi-functional halogen projector headlamps produce a wide spread light pattern, enhancing visibility across a broader area of road. Available fog lamps are also projector style.
The available SmartBeam® Intelligent Headlamp System detects ambient light from oncoming traffic. It switches automatically from high to low beam and back again when oncoming headlamps are sensed, providing the maximum amount of light for nighttime driving.
- DUAL-CHROMED EXHAUST TIPS

The bright dual-chromed exhaust tips are mounted into the rear fascia. This ensures a consistent fit and proper clearance between the chrome tips and the fascia throughout the life of the vehicle.
