Performance & powertrain

Top speed
?

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

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

AWD
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 × 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

2998 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

340 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

250 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
5500 – 6500 rpm
Maximum torque N⋅m
450 N⋅m
Maximum torque rpm
1380 – 5200 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

4.8 s
Engine power system
Direct injection (direct)
Number of cylinders
6
Valves per cylinder
?

Fuel cost calculator

Estimates use only the figures you enter, in your own currency. No live fuel prices or emissions data are used.

Comfort and Convenience

Seating position is personal: some drivers prefer sitting high for a clear view of the road ahead, while others like a lower, more reclined posture. Height, build and driving habits all shape that choice.

Safety and Driver Assistance

Knowing where the lights, wipers and demister sit before setting off means less searching once traffic demands attention. A few unhurried minutes in a parked car cover most of what a journey asks for.

Multimedia and Connectivity

A phone that runs low mid-journey is a common annoyance, so a charging option matters on longer drives. Where hands-free calling is available, it keeps conversation separate from the music playing.
