Which Bitter Vero version to buy
There is one named version in the catalogue: 6.0. It ran from 2007-01-01 to 2012-12-31 as a Sedan. No second engine, no restyle split, no rival gearbox inside the same generation. If you are choosing a Vero, you are choosing 6.0 or you are leaving the model.

What 6.0 actually is, in the numbers that exist: Gasoline, 8 cylinders, V-shaped, 4 valves per cylinder, Front, longitudinal, Distributed injection (multi-point), boost No, compression 10.4, bore and stroke 101.6 × 92, 270 kW at 5700 rpm, 530 Nm at 4400 rpm, Automatic with 6 gears, RWD, tank 73 litres, kerb 1890 kg. Front and rear suspension Independent, spring. Front brakes Ventilated disc, rear Disc.
Specs that decide the buy: 6.0 only
| Version | hp | Nm | cm³ | Fuel | Cylinders | Layout | Boost | Gearbox | Drive |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 6.0 | 362 | 530 | 5967 | Gasoline | 8 | V-shaped | No | Automatic | RWD |
Power per litre on 6.0 is 362 / 5.967 ≈ 60.7 hp/l (270 / 5.967 ≈ 45.2 kW/l). Torque per litre is 530 / 5.967 ≈ 88.8 Nm/l. Those ratios describe a large-displacement Gasoline V-shaped 8 with boost No, not a small high-output unit. The extra cubic centimetres are the product: 5967 cm³ for 362 hp, not 362 hp squeezed from a smaller block.
Kerb weight per horsepower is 1890 / 362 ≈ 5.22 kg/hp (1890 / 270 ≈ 7.00 kg/kW). That is the mass the Automatic 6-speed and RWD have to move. There is no lighter Vero in the data to buy instead.
Performance and economy: what 6.0 delivers, what is not measured
6.0 is listed at 6 s to 100 km/h and 240 km/h. Those two figures are the only performance numbers in the set. Fuel consumption city is not measured. Fuel consumption highway is not measured. Combined consumption is not measured. CO2 is not measured. Eco class is not measured. Fuel grade is not measured.
You cannot rank 6.0 on mpg because mpg is not in the data. You can only rank it on the 6 s / 240 km/h pair against its own 362 hp, 530 Nm and 1890 kg. Peak power is at 5700 rpm; peak torque is at 4400 rpm — 1300 rpm apart. The Automatic 6-speed is the only transmission; there is no manual 6.0 to prefer for involvement or a different 0–100 figure.
Tank volume is 73 litres. Without a measured consumption figure, range is not measured either. Do not treat the 73-litre tank as an economy argument; it is a capacity figure only.
Dimensions and weight: what you accept with 6.0
Kerb weight for 6.0 is 1890 kg. Gross weight is not measured. Ground clearance is not measured. Wheel sizes are not measured.
The missing trio matters for a buy: you cannot check payload (gross minus kerb) because gross is not measured; you cannot check ride height; you cannot check tyre diameter. Suspension is Independent, spring at both ends on this one version — there is no adaptive or beam-axle alternative inside the Vero range. Front brakes Ventilated disc versus rear Disc is the only brake split listed; there is no second brake package to pay extra for.
Generations: nothing later to wait for
Pokoleniy = 1. Generation 1 generation is 2007-01-01 to 2012-12-31, body Sedan, modifikaciy = 1. There is no second generation with more hp, less mass, or a measured mpg figure. Waiting for a later Vero in this catalogue does not change the arithmetic: 6.0 at 362 hp and 1890 kg is the whole model.
Engine layout as a buying filter
Cylinders 8, V-shaped, 4 valves per cylinder: 8 × 4 = 32 valves on 6.0. Placement Front, longitudinal with RWD is the only drivetrain. Boost No and compression 10.4 go together with Distributed injection (multi-point). If the requirement is AWD, a different gearbox, Diesel, or a turbocharged smaller engine, this catalogue has no Vero that satisfies it — those configurations are not listed, not “not measured.”
If the requirement is a Gasoline Sedan with Automatic 6 gears, RWD, 362 hp, 530 Nm and 5967 cm³, 6.0 is an exact match, not an approximation.
Which version to choose
Choose 6.0 when 362 hp, 530 Nm, 6 s to 100 km/h and 240 km/h at 1890 kg kerb are the targets, and when Front, longitudinal + RWD + Automatic 6-speed is acceptable. The power-to-weight result is about 5.22 kg/hp. The displacement-to-power result is about 60.7 hp/l.
Do not choose 6.0 if you need a measured combined, city or highway consumption figure, a measured CO2 or eco class, a measured ground clearance, measured wheels, or a measured gross weight. Those fields are not measured on this version; they are not hidden in another trim.
There is no “sport” SKU separate from 6.0 in the data. Interior equipment is not in the data. Sale prices are not in the data. The mechanical choice collapses to one row: 6.0, Gasoline 8 V-shaped, 5967 cm³, 362 hp / 270 kW at 5700 rpm, 530 Nm at 4400 rpm, Automatic 6, RWD, 73-litre tank, 1890 kg, 2007–2012 Sedan.
