The washrooms were designed after the dealership’s colours and feature an accent wall intended to represent the revolutions per minute (RPM) meter in a vehicle and the redline effect.
The facilities were chosen because of their convenience and cleanliness with specialty fixtures, such as touchless facets, soap dispensers, hand dryers, towel dispensers, automatic air fresheners and deluxe baby changing stations in both the men’s and women’s washrooms.
