Facelift

A facelift was conducted on the Hyundai-Starex-based Refine MPV, with the front DRG still being visually similar to the post-facelift first generation Starex while featuring a independently developed rear end design, replacing the tail lamps, tail gate, and rear bumper. In the first few years of its introduction, the M5 (second generation Refine MPV) was sold alongside its predecessor.
