From this partial exposure image, we can find four changes:
- The trim has changed from a glossy black piano finish to a low-key matte finish;
- The phone area and storage area are separated, and the middle section is opened by sliding instead of using the previous flip system;
- The phone wireless charging board area has added suede wrapping;
- The center console is wrapped in artificial leather with added white stitching.
To make it easier for everyone to see the differences before and after the adjustments, we will also post a picture of the current model’s center console, so that everyone can feel the difference between the two.
Compared with the current model, the new center console looks more textured and luxurious, and the fingerprint collector, which has always been criticized, has been replaced by a matte material and added a silver trim.
The center console armrest area has been changed from a one-piece structure to a split structure, and the lower part has been made into a closed structure, preventing phones from easily falling into the storage compartment.
Are those with purchasing power satisfied with this more luxurious center console design and cheaper price?
