The highest speed a vehicle can sustain under manufacturer test conditions. Some cars are electronically limited below their mechanical potential. Glossary entry
210 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
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
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
82 × 70.9 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
1498 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
6
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
152 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
112 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
10.5
Maximum power rpm
5000 rpm
Maximum torque N⋅m
250 N⋅m
Maximum torque rpm
1800 – 4020 rpm

Comfort and Convenience
Seating position is personal. A taller driver often wants to sit low with legs extended, while someone shorter may prefer sitting higher for a clearer view over the bonnet, and neither preference is the correct one.
Safety and Driver Assistance
A short pause before setting off is enough to locate the lights, the demister and the hazard switch. Doing that while parked means those things are already known when the weather or the traffic changes.
Multimedia and Connectivity
Phones run low on long journeys, so a charging point within easy reach matters. Where hands-free calling is supported, it remains a separate function from playing music, and each may be set up in its own way.
