The rear-end again perfectly synergizes with Bestune family with slim connected taillight design with vertical reflector beams. There is a pair of squarish dual-tip exhausts positioned at the bottom of blacked-out rear bumper.
The Bestune T99 will be available in three trims to choose from: Standard, Deluxe, and Sport. The differences are purely aesthetic, because the equipment remains the same. There are two 12-inch digital displays acting as a dashboard and a multimedia screen, shielded from excess light by a sun visor. The touch-enabled multimedia screen provides access to the climate control settings, seat heating and other useful functions.
Like the T77, the new Bestune T99 will also feature a holographic image projector called the D-Life. Once activated, a voice-controlled virtual assistant pops up above the dashboard and can help you change climate control settings or find your favorite tune in the library.
