5 generation, restyling · Coupe
Generation photo. Individual trim appearance may differ.
The highest speed a vehicle can sustain under manufacturer test conditions. Some cars are electronically limited below their mechanical potential. Glossary entry
250 km/h
Engine type
Gasoline
Transmission
Automatic
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
82 × 78.8 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
2497 cm³
Engine location
Front, longitudinal
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
6
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
204 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
150 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
11
Maximum power rpm
6300 rpm
Maximum torque N⋅m
250 N⋅m
Maximum torque rpm
2750 rpm
Acceleration to 100?
The time a vehicle needs to reach 100 km/h from a standstill, a common shorthand for overall performance. Glossary entry
7 s
Engine power system
Distributed injection (multi-point)
Number of cylinders

Engine and Transmission
On a long route most distance is covered at a steady cruise rather than in short bursts of acceleration. Predictability tends to matter more than outright pace: knowing roughly what to expect when a gradient or an overtaking gap appears.
Drivetrain and Everyday Driving
Time spent on unfamiliar roads is easier when the controls are already second nature. Reaching for wipers, lights or climate settings without looking down keeps attention on the traffic ahead, which matters most in rain, at dusk or in heavy traffic.
Body and Practicality
Luggage for several days tends to arrive as a few large cases rather than many small bags. What helps is loading them once and leaving them undisturbed, so items needed during the trip travel separately within reach of the cabin.
