The model debuted 18 years ago and changed generations twice, but each new version became less and less popular. It was originally planned that the four-door would go down in history in 2024, but the manufacturer decided not to delay it.

The change of generations is a natural process not only in nature, but also in the automobile industry: all models sooner or later give way to their heirs or retire without successors.

However, electric cars themselves are passing the baton to more advanced “battery” followers. However, sometimes we are talking only about leaving certain markets.
