The new model shares its five-door stablemate’s mechanicals and 101-inch wheelbase, but has twin removable sunroof panels above the driver and passenger and a detachable rear hardback, adding open-air motoring to its list of attributes.
The SE3 will be available in December at $26,995 MSRP including destination and delivery.
Items unique to the three-door include the black composite A-frame brush bar and silver underbody brush plate, 17-inch ‘Triple Sport Evolution’ alloy wheels and new paint colours such as Borrego Yellow and Tangiers Orange. Inside, there are black ‘Technical Fabric’ seats and a 240-watt, 9-speaker harman/kardon sound system with single in-dash CD player.
Standard equipment includes roof rails, air conditioning, power windows, cruise control, power steering, heated front windscreen, side view mirrors and rear window. The interior seats five with a 60/40 split rear bench rather than the individual seats offered as an alternative in some other markets. There is 46.6 cubic feet of cargo space with the rear seats folded.
