The highest speed a vehicle can sustain under manufacturer test conditions. Some cars are electronically limited below their mechanical potential. Glossary entry

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
80 × 72.8 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
2195 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
4
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
90 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
66 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
Gasoline burns after a spark ignites a compressed air-fuel mixture, and the expanding gases push the piston down. With rear-wheel drive, that rotation travels rearward through the transmission and a propeller shaft to the driven axle.
Drivetrain and Everyday Driving
Rear-wheel drive is a mechanical layout describing which wheels receive torque. Electronic traction control is a separate function that detects wheel slip and cuts power or brakes a spinning wheel; a layout alone never implies such a system is fitted.
Body and Practicality
A sedan's boot is a sealed compartment behind the rear seat, so luggage stays out of sight but cannot be reached from inside. Anything wanted mid-journey is better kept in the cabin, since retrieving it otherwise means stopping.
