Starting with the most obvious, the CS35 Plus now has a more aggressive face that appears similar to that of its larger sibling, the CS 75 Plus. It gets a huge grille that extends towards the lower half of the bumper and is complemented by slim LED headlights.

On higher-grade variants, it also comes with a sporty red trim that provides contrast and separates the grille from the lower air intake. The rear only received only minor updates that include a revised LED taillight design.

Under the hood of the 2022 CS35 Plus is an upgraded 1.4-liter turbocharged inline-four. It now makes 160 PS along with 260 Nm of torque. This translates to an additional 2 PS along with 25 Nm of extra pull. Like its predecessor, CS35 Plus gets a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission with manual select.
