Here the data:
Engine 72Deg DoubleV 8 Cyl (lots of valves LOL)
HP 275 at 6000 RPM at sea level
NM 370 at 2750 RPM at sea level
AWD using Haldex
0-62 Mph 6.8 Sec as 6spd, 7.8 Sec as 5 speed Auto
Top Speed: 250 Km/h limited
Weight Sedan (base version): 1730Kg goes up quickly with options
Tires: 225/45 R17 W
Average Fuel Consumption EU Cycle: 13.2L (30% more then an 9-5 Aero)
Seats: Ironic, like in current 9-5 Aero with little lateral support
A nice car which offers less performance then I would
have thought it would. The new W8 engine is thirsty!
Regards,
Coolknight
