Fuel economy (EPA)
| Model years | Configuration | Combined | City | Highway |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2018–2020, 2022–2026 | 1.5 L, 4 cyl · CVT (continuously variable) · Four-wheel drive | 9.0–9.4 L/100 km | 9.4 L/100 km | 8.4–9.0 L/100 km |
| 2018–2020, 2022–2025 | 1.5 L, 4 cyl · CVT (continuously variable) · Front-wheel drive | 8.7–9.0 L/100 km | 9.0–9.4 L/100 km | 8.1–8.4 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 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.
