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
FWD
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
85 × 88 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
1997 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
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
135 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
99 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 this coupe's automatic gearbox, neutral disconnects the drive path between the torque converter output and the wheels, so the engine can idle while no gearset is engaged. That separation is what allows the car to be rolled or towed short distances.
Drivetrain and Everyday Driving
Front-wheel drive asks the same two tyres to steer and to transmit engine torque, so worn tread at the front reduces grip for both jobs at once. Even pulling away on a damp junction can produce scrabbling from a tyre that no longer clears water.
Body and Practicality
A coupe roofline falls away steeply towards the rear, so the usable space narrows in height as it approaches the tail. Tall, boxy items often need laying flat or angling, while long low loads slide in more readily.
