Here are the first two photos of the Qoros brand’s second production model that was teased earlier, the C-segment Qoros 3 hatchback. Essentially a hatchback version of the Qoros 3 Sedan, it will debut at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show in March this year.
There are visual changes to the front to differentiate it from the sedan – it has a new front grille, front bumper and fog lamps to create a bolder look for the face. On the rear, other than the obvious hatchback tailgate instead of a sedan boot, there is a new tail lamp design.
The Qoros 3 hatch will also get an eight-inch touchscreen infotainment system called Qoros MMH. It supports multi-touch control. Optional is QorosQloud, which delivers a comprehensive suite of free-for-life services with 3G connectivity, including vehicle monitoring, social networking and enhanced navigation.
Under the hood is the same engine range as the sedan – 1.6-litre naturally-aspirated and turbocharged engines and six-speed manual and dual-clutch automatic transmissions.
