FUEL
CONSUMPTION

The fuel consumption values, ex-

pressed in litres x 100 km, shown in
the following tables, were defined on
the basis of type-approval tests spec-
ified by European Directives.

Consumption values are defined by

means of the following procedures:

an urban cycle consisting of a

cold start and a simulated drive in city
streets;

an extra-urban cycle consisting

in frequent accelerations, in all gears,
simulating normal conditions of use.
Speed ranges from 0 to 120 km/h;

the combined consumption is

calculated as approximately 37% of the
urban cycle and approximately 63% of
the extra-urban cycle.

IMPORTANT Road and traffic

conditions, weather, driving style, fit-
tings and accessories, load, special de-
vices and overall car conditions can
penalise aerodynamic penetration and
influence fuel consumption rates which
can be different from the values shown
in the table (see “Cheap running that
respects the environment” in “Driving
your car” chapter).
