Car details explained

Engine

1.2L Smartstream

Measured in cc or litres: the engine's size. Engine size alone does not tell you fuel use or performance.

Power

83 hp

The engine or motor's output, shown in kW, hp or PS. It affects performance, but the car's weight and other parts matter too.

Torque

115 Nm

The turning force from the engine or motor, measured in Nm. It helps the car move and pull, but a larger number alone does not prove better hill performance.

Ground clearance

205 mm

The gap between the road and the lowest part of the car. For example, 180 mm is 18 cm. Passengers and luggage can reduce that gap.

Safety rating

3 Star (Global NCAP)

A crash-test result. Check the testing organisation, year and tested version. Stars from different test programmes are not directly comparable. Not tested does not mean zero stars.
