Data Overview
For technical approval or fiscal reasons, power values
and benefits may vary.
Unless stated otherwise, the technical data is valid for
the basic model. The indicated values may differ
depending on the optional equipment or model version,
as well as in the case of special vehicles and equipment
for certain countries. The data from the official vehicle
documentation always have priority.
On some engines with undercarriage for rough roads,
the maximum speed may be limited and therefore lower
than indicated.
