With the release of the upgraded SM6 sedan, the automaker introduced an “S-Look” add-on package for customers looking for a sporty driving experience. The package comes with 19-inch black alloy wheels and modified side mirrors designed for enhanced performance.

For customers looking for more premium features, the automaker added two luxury trims to the lineup. The luxury trims come with exclusive logos on the front and sides and are equipped with 19-inch two-tone alloy wheel resembling the shape of the Eiffel Tower.

Buyers can utilize a free pickup and delivery maintenance service two times in the first three years.

For its interior, the premiere trims of SM6 come with leather seats and upgraded headrests for the backseats. The vehicle is also equipped with an 8.7-inch navigation system, a Bose sound system with 13 speakers and an active damping control system.
