Notes
¹ The figure stated was calculated using the specified measuring procedure
(current version of Directive 80/1269/EEC).
² Weight of car, unladen, with driver (68 kg), luggage (7 kg) and fuel tank 90%
full, calculated in accordance with the current version of Directive 92/21/EEC.
Optional equipment may increase the car’s unladen weight and drag coefficient,
whereupon the possible payload limit and the top speed will be reduced
accordingly.
³ The engine’s power output always goes down with increasing altitude. At
1,000m above sea level, and for every additional 1,000 m, deduct 10 % from the
weight of the outfit (trailer load limit + gross weight of the towing vehicle).
Figure for trailer load limit applies to factory-fitted trailer towing hitch. If using
the vehicle with a trailer towing hitch for commercial purposes, a digital
tachograph may be required under certain conditions.
⁴ A vehicle’s fuel consumption and CO₂ emissions do not just depend on how
efficiently the vehicle uses the fuel, but are also influenced by driving behaviour
and other non-technical factors. CO₂ is the greenhouse gas primarily responsible
for global warming.
⁵ Regulated.
⁶ We recommend using sulphur-free super unleaded (RON 98) in accordance with
DIN EN 228. If not available, use sulphur-free super unleaded RON 95 in
accordance with DIN EN 228; power output will be slightly reduced. Unleaded
RON 95 fuel with a maximum ethanol content of 10% (E10) can generally be
used. Fuel consumption details refer to operation with RON 95 fuel in accordance
with 692/2008/EC.
⁷ The figures given were calculated using the specified measuring procedures. The
figures do not refer to one individual vehicle and do not form part of any offer,
but rather should be used purely for purposes of comparison between the
different vehicle models.
Important note
Inspections are due as shown by the service display.
