2019 JAC Refine S3

Looks like JAC is aiming for the title of most facelifts for a car model, sending us back to the days of Alfred Sloan's annual model changes at GM.

Not counting the pre-production S30 or the DR4-based Euro, facelifts for the Refine S3, launched in 2014, have been introduced in 2015, 2016, and 2017 prior to this.
