For the 2014 model year, the SUV still carry over the last year tweaked design, including a big split-wing grille and fascia, while new body paint and rearrangement of package options is offered now. The side profile is the home of its muscular bulge and high beltline, while the big rear end seems to extend and passes its 19 or 20-inch wheelbase.
