Additionally, the SUV is also expected to get sporty styling elements in the form of a black lip spoiler for the front bumper, sporty diffuser design on the rear bumper, black side skirting, and more. The vehicle will have the ‘Monte Carlo’ badge all around the vehicle to distinguish it from the regular version.
