The teaser video shows sleek LED tail lights that rise upwards stylized with black inserts. Touching the tail lamps at the top, there seems to be a full-width LED or chrome strip on the tail gate. It appears to follows through the sides to the front, merging with the LED strip above the headlamps. Features at the front include a big V-shaped grille and Volkswagen logo - both apparently illuminated by LEDs, compact headlamps and C-shaped daytime running lights.
