Fuel consumption, carbon dioxide emissions (Q)

Fuel consumption is measured according to the uniform European method 80/1268/EWG. It is in no way identical to average consumption, which depends on many factors such as driving style, load, road condition, traffic density, weather, tire pressure, etc.

Engine performance data is measured according to European method 80/1269/EWG or DIN 70020 for the vehicle in standard configuration. Permissible deviations are also strictly regulated.

Optional equipment or accessories (roof rack, wide tires, additional mirrors, etc.) significantly affect performance and fuel consumption, since they change the vehicle mass and the drag coefficient c.
