It's not a 3L version they started with, and a different tunnel.

What surprises me is the effect, considering it's only a small modification - Certainly compared to full boat tails or Kammbacks.

The A2 and Lupo 3L both had some expensive weight reduction measures incorporated, while still looking the same as the regular versions.
This led to their excessive price and the weak market response.
