Fuel & MPG / Battery & Range
| Fuel type Fuel type refers to the kind of energy source used to power an engine or appliance, such as gasoline, diesel, electricity, or alternative fuels. | Premium unleaded (required) |
| EPA city/highway MPG EPA city/highway MPG refers to the estimated miles per gallon a car gets in city driving and on highways, as measured by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. | 21/31 MPG |
| EPA combined MPG EPA combined MPG stands for Environmental Protection Agency Combined Miles per Gallon. It estimates a vehicle’s fuel efficiency by averaging its performance in both city and highway driving conditions. | 25 MPG |
| Range in miles (city/hwy) Car range refers to the distance a vehicle can travel on a full tank of fuel (or a full battery charge) and is usually measured separately for city driving—which often gives a lower range due to stop-and-go traffic—and highway driving, where steady speeds generally result in a higher range. | 365.4/539.4 mi. |
| Fuel tank capacity A car's fuel tank capacity is the maximum amount of fuel it can hold, usually measured in liters or gallons. | 17.4 gal. |
| CO2 Emissions Car CO₂ emissions refer to the amount of carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere by a vehicle’s engine as it burns fuel. | 5.8 tons |
Engine
| Base engine size The car’s base engine size usually refers to its engine displacement, which is the total volume of all the cylinders (measured in liters or cubic centimeters). | 2.0 L |
| Cylinders Car cylinders are the chambers in an engine where the combustion of fuel occurs, driving pistons to create mechanical power. | Inline 4 |
| Base engine type A car’s base engine type refers to its fundamental design—typically the configuration (like inline, V-type, or boxer) and the fuel it uses (gasoline, diesel, etc.). | Gas |
| Horsepower Car horsepower is a unit of power that measures how much work an engine can perform, with one horsepower roughly equal to 746 watts. | 241 hp @ 5,200 rpm |
| Torque Car torque is a measure of the engine's twisting force, indicating its ability to accelerate the vehicle and overcome resistance. | 258 lb-ft @ 1,650 rpm |
| Valves Car valves are engine components that control the intake of air and fuel and the exhaust of combustion gases. | 16 |
| Cam type generally refers to the configuration of an engine’s camshaft(s). For example, engines can have a single overhead cam (SOHC) or dual overhead cam (DOHC) layout, each affecting valve timing and engine performance differently. | Double overhead cam (DOHC) |
| Valve timing Valve timing is the process of precisely controlling when the engine's intake and exhaust valves open and close to optimize performance and efficiency. | Variable |
| Dual fuel injection | Standard |
Towing & Hauling
| Max Towing Capacity | 975 lbs. |
Drivetrain
| Transmission A car transmission is the system that transfers power from the engine to the wheels, using different gear ratios to control speed and torque. | 8-speed shiftable automatic |
