Due to differing safety regulations and consumer tastes, the number of differences is astounding. Some of them include:
- rear hatch door (different license plate proportions),
- larger cupholders (for 32 oz./0.95 liter drinks),
- longer wiper blades (U.S. regulations require greater sweep area),
- stronger air conditioning (because we sweat more), and
- spare tire in Euro model is above the floor; tire in NAFTA model is under flat floor because U.S. has rear crash test and flat floor strengthens the rear.

I also heard on the Gareth Jones on Speed podcast that the power window switches are inexplicably different.
