"How so?" he askes, rolling his eyes. Kodo design is nothing more than a "less is more" or "refined elegance" aesthetic, with some extra marketing jazz tossed in. Given the touchy-feely nature of such things, you'd be hard pressed to find any clearly disqualifying characteristics in gen 2 vs. gen 1.No doubt! Your 2016.5 CX-5 has kept the original “Kodo” design and is better looking than gen-2 CX-5!
It's easier to define it by what it isn't, such as Hyundai's preference to crease sheet metal and cut out space wherever they can manage it on several models or the Toyota / Lexus in-your-face gaping maw grill they've used on some models--sad examples of "more is more".
