Size-wise, it's not appreciably larger than the car it replaces, but
intelligent use of aluminum and a carving out of interior space means it's both lighter and roomier than the outgoing model.

of aluminum, high - strength steel and magnesium, up to 137 lbs have been shaved off the weight
of the previous model, while body strength and torsional rigidity have been increased.
