- The front fascial is borrowed from the G-Wagen
- The square radiator grille features a unique emblem called 'Bear Witness'; this bear-shaped logo is inspired by the automaker's three-point star and vehicle sound. The same logo will appear on the apparel and merchandise part of this collaboration.

The automaker has not shared any images of the car's rear profile and cabin, giving us near to information about other inclusions, if any.
