Type of boost?
A turbocharger or supercharger compresses the air entering the engine so a smaller engine can produce more power. Naturally aspirated engines draw air without a compressor. Glossary entry
No
Type of drive?
Which wheels receive power: front-wheel drive, rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. All-wheel drive can send power to every wheel for extra traction. Glossary entry
RWD
Bore and stroke?
The diameter of a cylinder (bore) and the distance the piston travels inside it (stroke). Together they determine the displacement of the engine. Glossary entry
104.1 × 91.4 mm
Engine capacity?
The total volume swept by all pistons inside the cylinders, usually stated in cubic centimetres or litres. Larger displacement often means more power but higher consumption. Glossary entry
6223 cm³

Number of gears?
How many fixed forward ratios a gearbox offers. More gears can improve economy and refinement; continuously variable transmissions have no fixed steps. Glossary entry

Maximum power?
A unit of engine or motor output. One metric horsepower is about 0.735 kilowatts. Peak power is normally reached at high engine speed. Glossary entry
200 hp
Maximum power, kw?
A unit of engine or motor output. One metric horsepower is about 0.735 kilowatts. Peak power is normally reached at high engine speed. Glossary entry
147 kW
Compression ratio?
The ratio between the largest and smallest volume of a cylinder as the piston moves. Higher ratios improve efficiency but may require higher-octane fuel. Glossary entry

Engine and Transmission
The energy path is conventional: gasoline burns in the engine, the automatic transmission multiplies that torque through a fluid coupling and selected gear, and a driveshaft carries it back to the rear axle, where a differential splits it between the two rear wheels.
Drivetrain and Everyday Driving
With a rear-wheel-drive layout, traction depends on the load resting over the driven axle, so a lightly laden rear end can limit grip when pulling away on a wet or loose surface. The listed layout describes where drive goes, not how much grip results.
Body and Practicality
A sedan body encloses the luggage area in a separate compartment behind the rear seatbacks, with its own lid that leaves the rear window fixed. That bulkhead keeps cabin noise and cargo apart, at the cost of loading only through the boot opening.
