            [1] Figures for rated output and rated torque in accordance with Directive 80/1269/EEC in the currently applicable version.

            [2] The figures shown for fuel consumption and CO2 emissions were obtained in accordance with the prescribed measuring process (Directive 80/1268/EEC in the currently applicable version). The figures do not apply to a specific vehicle and do not constitute part of the product offer. They are provided solely for the purpose of comparing different models.

            [3] Figures for kerb weight according to Directive 92/21/EC, version 95/48/EC (kerb weight with fuel tank 90% full, driver, 68 kg, and luggage, 7 kg) for standard-specification vehicles. Optional extras and accessories will generally increase this figure and reduce the payload capacity accordingly.
