It also has a sun roof. The top-end comes with smoke sepia brown-coloured leather wrapped on the seats and armrests. 

It will come in 6 colours – Glaze Red, Burgundy Red, Starry black, candy white, aurora silver and Starry Sky Blue. The last colour is exclusive to the Hector Plus.

As for engines, the Hector Plus will come with options of 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol (141 bhp), 1.5-litre petrol hybrid and 2-litre turbocharged diesel (168 bhp).
