The current design iteration retains the quirky design theme of its predecessors, with a fascia inspired by the 1963 Jaguar Mark 2. The rounded headlights on the bulbous front are positioned near the recognizable Jaguar-style grille. Additional highlights include bumpers made of chrome and a few chrome strips running through the doors, on the retro-styled bonnet, and over the front fenders.

Updates for the 2024 model include a larger MID screen and a Smart Entry system with Push Start that is installed as standard equipment in every variant. The rest of the things including powertrain options remain untouched. Customers can opt between 1.0L and 1.5L three-cylinder petrol engines as well as the 1.5L hybrid which is the most efficient option. Power is transmitted to the front (2WD) or all four wheels (4WD) through a 6-speed manual, a CVT, or an eCVT gearbox depending on the variant.
