FUEL CONSUMPTION
The fuel consumption figures given in the table below are determined on the basis of the homologation tests set
down by specific European Directives.
Consumption values are defined by means of the following procedures:
❒ urban cycle: cold starting followed by driving that simulates urban use of the car;
❒ extra-urban cycle: frequent accelerating in all gears, simulating extraurban use of the car: the speed varies between
0 and 120 km/h;
❒ combined consumption: is calculated weighing about 37% of urban cycle consumption and about 63% of
extraurban consumption.
IMPORTANT Road and traffic conditions, weather, driving style, general conditions of the car, fittings and
accessories, load, use of climate control system, roof rack and other situations can affect drag and therefore may
lead to fuel consumption levels different from those shown in the table.
