The given value was obtained in accordance
with the specified measurement procedure
(the respective current version of the
Directive 80/1269/EEC).
2
Fuel consumption and CO2 emissions
figures are obtained under standardised
test conditions (Directive 93/116/EEC)
using a representative model. This allows
direct comparison between different
models from different manufacturers,
but may not represent the actual fuel
consumption achieved in ‘real world’ driving
conditions. More information is available at
www.vca.gov.uk
3
Vehicle’s unladen weight without driver
(calculated in accordance with the current
version of Directive 80/1268/EEC). The
fitting of additional equipment may
increase the vehicle’s unladen weight and
drag coefficient, whereupon the potential
carrying capacity and top speed will be
correspondingly reduced.
4
The engine’s power output always goes
down with increasing altitude. At 1,000m
above sea level, and for every additional
1,000m, deduct 10% from the weight of
the outfit (trailer load limit + gross weight
of the towing vehicle).
Please note: The maximum power output
figures are quoted in PS (or Pferdestärke,
which is the metric equivalent of brake
horsepower). To convert to brake
horsepower, divide the PS figure by 1.0139.
