In addition, a new ‘Flamenco Red Pearl’ paint scheme has also been added to the range.

Meanwhile, the safety features are also include an advanced body structure and several solutions that are unique in the world of convertibles. The lack of a fixed roof has been compensated by structural reinforcements and sophisticated technology.
