The highest speed a vehicle can sustain under manufacturer test conditions. Some cars are electronically limited below their mechanical potential. Glossary entry
235 km/h
Engine type
Plug-in
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
Turbo
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 x 94.6 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
1998 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
8
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
292 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
215 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
5000-6500 rpm
Maximum torque N⋅m
428 N⋅m
Maximum torque rpm
1350-4250 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
5.9 s

Engine and Transmission
Errand driving tends to be a sequence of short hops rather than long runs, so predictability matters more than outright pace. Knowing roughly how a car behaves when pulling away from a parking space makes routine journeys easier to judge.
Drivetrain and Everyday Driving
Everyday journeys leave little attention to spare, since most of it goes to traffic and pedestrians. Controls that can be found by habit, such as wipers, climate or mirrors, let a driver make small adjustments without breaking the rhythm of the trip.
Body and Practicality
Shopping bags are the classic errand load, and what helps most is somewhere they can sit without sliding about on the way home. Splitting a load between the footwells and the boot is a habit most drivers settle into over time.
