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
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
89 × 85.6 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
3195 cm³
Engine location
Front, transverse
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
5
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
223 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
164 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
In an automatic transmission, neutral disengages the gearsets so no gear ratio connects the engine to the output shaft. The engine can idle and turn while the driven wheels are free to roll, which is why neutral is used for towing or rolling a stalled car.
Drivetrain and Everyday Driving
With all-wheel drive, each driven wheel must do two jobs through one small patch of rubber: roll to follow the road and simultaneously transmit torque. Grip is finite, so force spent on acceleration is unavailable for steering or braking at that same patch.
Body and Practicality
Luggage volume assumes space that can actually be filled, but rigid objects cannot flow into corners or around wheel-arch intrusions. A long box or a pushchair frame may be limited by the load floor's length and the shape of the five-door opening rather than the total figure.
