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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2022, 2025 | Petrol | 1998 cm³ | 180 kW (245 PS) | 1675–1787 kg | 201–218 g/km (WLTP) |
| 2022 | Diesel | 2199 cm³ | 147 kW (200 PS) | 1773–1838 kg | 167–195 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.
