Values are the official EPA label figures for each model year, shown as the lowest and highest value for the configuration. Electric models show energy use per 100 km. Real-world consumption depends on driving style, weather and load. Luggage and passenger volumes follow the EPA measuring method and can differ from the VDA figures used in Europe.
EU type-approval data
| Years | Powertrain | Engine | Power | Mass | CO₂ |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2023–2024 | Petrol | 3564 cm³ | 231 kW (314 PS) | 2096–2128 kg | 291 g/km (WLTP) |
| 2020, 2022 | Petrol | 3564 cm³ | 215 kW (292 PS) | 1903–2141 kg | 195–198 g/km (WLTP) |
Years are registration years. Each range runs from the 10th to the 90th percentile of the values reported for new registrations; it is not an average. Mass is the mass in running order. For electric cars the power is the type-approval net power, which can be lower than the peak power in brochures.
