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
90.41 × 86.7 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
3340 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

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
318 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
233 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
Holding a steady pace asks only enough torque to offset drag and rolling resistance, sent through the rear axle. Accelerating demands a surge, so the automatic transmission drops to a lower gear and the engine turns faster to multiply torque.
Drivetrain and Everyday Driving
Which axle receives power says nothing about how sharply the front wheels can turn. Turning radius follows steering geometry, lock stops and wheelbase; the automatic transmission simply keeps torque flowing smoothly while the wheels are angled.
Body and Practicality
A five-door SUV body counts the rear opening as a door, so cargo loads through a tall upright aperture rather than over a sloping deck. That height keeps the loading edge near waist level and gives standing room behind the vehicle.
