Trims & Availability
Eight trims are available: LS, LT, RS, and ACTIV, each offered in FWD and AWD configurations. That gives you a broad range of feature levels and drivetrain choices within a single model line.
The RS targets a sport-oriented buyer and comes standard with the 1.3L 155-hp engine, 19-inch High Gloss Black aluminum wheels, LED tail lamps, Jet Black with Red accents Evotex seat trim, a Bose premium 7-speaker audio system, a hands-free power liftgate with LED logo projection, and a dual-outlet exhaust. The ACTIV targets buyers who want light off-road capability. It carries the same 1.3L engine but swaps in 17-inch sport terrain tires, off-road suspension tuning, a functional skid plate, titanium chrome-plated lower fascias, and Jet Black/Artemis interior with Yellow stitching.
No. AWD is optional on every trim but must be selected at order time. Choosing AWD on any trim automatically upgrades the transmission to the 9-speed automatic and the engine to the 1.3L turbo. FWD trims use the CVT and are available with either the 1.2L or 1.3L engine depending on trim.
Seven exterior colors are offered: Mosaic Black Metallic, Sterling Gray Metallic, Summit White, Marina Blue Metallic, Cacti Green, Apex Red (new for 2026), and White Sands (new for 2026). The RS also offers two-tone roof options pairing Apex Red or Mosaic Black Metallic roofs with select body colors.
