The 2.0-litre dCi engine is available in multiple states of tune, with the 110 PS variant serving as the entry-level efficiency leader. It features a refreshed front fascia with LED lighting and a significantly upgraded interior compared to its predecessor, aimed at improving comfort for professional users.
