Much of the mechanical specification remained as before, but a new, sleeker bodyshell with lower roof and waistlines and a larger glass area was much more modern in design than the dated, finned wing appearance of its predecessor; supplementing the saloons there were, as always, both coupé and cabriolet derivatives.
