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. | Regular unleaded |
| 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. | 49/47 MPG |
| EPA combined MPGe The EPA combined MPGe rating shows how many miles a car can travel using energy equivalent to one gallon of gasoline, blending city and highway efficiency. | 108 MPGe |
| EPA city/highway MPGe EPA city/highway MPGe measures a vehicle's energy efficiency in city and highway driving, expressed in miles per gallon equivalent (MPGe), comparing electric energy use to gasoline consumption. | 113/102 MPGe |
| 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. | 48 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. | 480.2/460.6 mi. |
| EPA kWh/100 mi EPA kWh/100 mi is a measure of an electric car's efficiency, showing how many kilowatt-hours of energy the vehicle consumes to travel 100 miles. | 31 |
| Fuel tank capacity A car's fuel tank capacity is the maximum amount of fuel it can hold, usually measured in liters or gallons. | 9.8 gal. |

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). | 1.6 tons |
| 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.). | Plug-in hybrid |
| 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. | 180 hp |
| Torque Car torque is a measure of the engine's twisting force, indicating its ability to accelerate the vehicle and overcome resistance. | 195 lb-ft |
| 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 |
| Direct injection Direct injection is a fuel system that injects fuel directly into the engine’s combustion chamber, which improves efficiency, power, and fuel economy. | Standard |
