The TN model was the second Magna model. Cosmetically it had a revised rear end (with the number plate moved to the back bumper bar and a red facia between the tail lights) and had 2 distinct grilles. The GLX, Executive and Elante all had a [[Media:TN_front_exec.jpg|mailbox grille]] (Elante's grille was painted the same colour as the car) while the SE and Elite had a fancy [[Media:TN_Elite.jpg|bar grille]]. The sides of the car were also fitted with better looking, fatter bump strips. Manual and Auto were avaliable in GLX, SE and Elante models and are more common than Auto. While Executive and Elite were Auto only. About 60% TN models come in Executive form.
 
 
 
The interior was left largely the same with only the trim being updated. Interior colours would vary to match the exterior colour. Interior colours were avaliable in Blue, Grey and Brown.
 
 
 
The TN introduced some of the biggest changes in the entire generation. EFI became an option, the Magna wagon was introduced and in May 1988 the Elante (a sporty variant) was released. Transaxles were also changed, with EFI automatics receiving the much improved [[KM177]] (Carby models stayed with the [[KM175]]). Manual models received a new [[KM210]] 5 speed manual.
