Fuel economy (EPA)
| Model years | Configuration | Combined | City | Highway |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2023–2026 | 2.4 L, 4 cyl hybrid · CVT (continuously variable) · All-wheel drive | 7.8 L/100 km | 8.1 L/100 km | 7.4 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 | Powertrain | Engine | Mass | CO₂ |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2011 | Petrol | 998 cm³ | 915–921 kg | 105 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.
