❒extraurban cycle: frequent accelera-
tions in all gears, simulating extraurban
use of the car: speed varies between 0
and 120 km/h;
❒combined consumption: calculated
weighing about 37% of urban cycle con-
sumption and about 63% of extraurban
consumption.
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.
The procedures below are followed for
measuring consumption:
❒urban cycle: cold starting followed by
driving that simulates urban use of the
car;IMPORTANT The type of route, traffic
situations, weather conditions, driving
style, general conditions of the car, trim
level/equipment/accessories, load, climate
control system, roof rack, other situations
that affect air drag may lead to different
fuel consumption levels than those mea-
sured.
