The beautifully integrated clamshell door provides easy access to a large cargo shelf and, for servicing, to the engine compartment located underneath. And there’s yet more cargo space in the forward trunk.

The coupe body-style also contributes to the car’s outstanding performance. The body shape is so aerodynamically refined, the drag coefficient is just 0.29—low even by sports car standards. The extremely rigid bodyshell provides improved responsiveness and all-around driving dynamics.
