This is the facelifted Dongfeng Fengshen S30, it will be launched on the Chinese car market on March 28. The ‘facelift’ is such a large makeover one could almost call it a new car. Almost, because platform and engine are unchanged. The facelift consists of an all-new front, new rear lights, new rear bumpers, and a slightly updated interior.

  1. Interior is a big step forward. Exterior facelift is a bit disapointing but mid cycle facelifts often make cars look worse or at least no better.

    The big step forward in terms of exterior design will have to wait for an all new model.
