technical data
† Highest insurance group rating shown.
Group may be lower dependent on trim
level. Please visit www.thatcham.org/
abigrouprating for details.
Please note: The maximum power output
figures are quoted in PS (or Pferdestärke,
which is the metric equivalent of brake
horsepower). To convert to brake
horsepower, divide the PS figure by 1.0139.
1
The given value was obtained in accordance
with the specified measurement procedure
(the respective current version of the
Directive 80/1269/EEC).
2
Top speed is achieved in top gear.
3
Vehicle’s unladen weight without driver
(calculated in accordance with the current
version of Directive 80/1268/EEC).
The fitting of additional equipment may
increase the vehicle’s unladen weight and
drag coefficient, whereupon the potential
carrying capacity and top speed will be
correspondingly reduced.
4
The engine’s power output always goes
down with increasing altitude. At 1,000m
above sea level, and for every additional
1,000m, deduct 10% from the weight of
the outfit (trailer load limit + gross weight
of the towing vehicle).
