Fuel economy (EPA)
| Model years | Configuration | Combined | City | Highway |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2010–2015 | 5.0 L, 8 cyl · 6-speed automatic · Rear-wheel drive | 12.4–13.8 L/100 km | 14.7–15.7 L/100 km | 9.8–10.7 L/100 km |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2011–2015 | Petrol | 5000 cm³ | 283 kW (385 PS) | 1719–1734 kg | 264 g/km (NEDC) |
| 2011–2015 | Petrol | 5000 cm³ | 375 kW (510 PS) | 1824–1839 kg | 292 g/km (NEDC) |
| 2011–2014 | Petrol | 5000 cm³ | 405 kW (551 PS) | 1824–1839 kg | 292 g/km (NEDC) |
| 2010–2011 | Petrol | 4196 cm³ | – | 1720–1810 kg | 269–294 g/km (NEDC) |
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.
