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
Not provided
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
3498 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
7
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
249 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
183 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
12
Maximum power rpm
6500 rpm
Maximum torque N⋅m
340 N⋅m
Maximum torque rpm
3500 – 4500 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
7.2 s

Direct injection (direct)
Number of cylinders
6
Valves per cylinder?
The number of intake and exhaust valves in each cylinder. Four valves per cylinder is common and helps the engine breathe at higher speeds. Glossary entry

Wheelbase?
The distance between the centres of the front and rear wheels. A longer wheelbase usually gives more cabin space and a calmer ride; a shorter one helps agility and parking. Glossary entry

Engine and Transmission
In this gasoline coupe, the automatic transmission uses a fluid coupling rather than a driver-operated clutch, so engine rotation reaches the rear wheels continuously while ratios change. Each ratio trades turning speed for turning effort as road speed builds.
Drivetrain and Everyday Driving
Rear-wheel drive describes which axle receives torque, not how sharply the car turns. Turning radius follows from steering geometry, wheelbase and how far the front wheels can pivot before touching suspension or bodywork, which the drive label says nothing about.
Body and Practicality
A coupe's boot is normally a sealed compartment reached from outside, so anything stowed there stays out of reach once underway. Items wanted during a journey are better kept in the cabin, where occupants can retrieve them without stopping.
