The catalogue field pokoleniy is 3, but two of those records are the 2 generation and its 2 generation, restyling. Restyling is not a third model generation.

The catalogue field `pokoleniy` is 3, but two of those records are the 2 generation and its 2 generation, restyling. Restyling is not a third model generation.

1 generation (1990-06-01 – 1993-12-31). Body: Coupe. 5 versions, all named 3.0 MT or 3.0 AT. Power: 225, 286, or 296 hp. Naturally aspirated cars use boost No; the two strongest use Turbo. Drive is AWD or FWD. Ground clearance is not measured except on the 3.0 MT 296 hp (145 mm). 0–100 km/h and top speed are not measured on the three 225 hp versions.

2 generation (1994-01-01 – 1998-05-31), including restyling (1998-06-01 – 1999-12-31). The pre-restyle record is a Cabrio with 10 versions. The restyling record is a Coupe with 2 versions. Together they cover 12 versions, all still named 3.0 MT or 3.0 AT, so they are distinguished by horsepower, gearbox, drive, and years.

On the Cabrio (to 1998-05-31): power is 162, 222, 286, or 320 hp. The 3.0 AT 320 hp FWD Turbo and 3.0 MT 320 hp FWD Turbo stop on 1996-01-31; the other eight Cabrio versions run to 1998-05-31. Ground clearance is 121 mm on eight Cabrio versions and 145 mm on the two Turbo AWD manuals (3.0 MT 286 hp and 3.0 MT 320 hp AWD).

On the restyle Coupe (1998-06-01 – 1999-12-31): two 3.0 MT Turbo AWD 6-speed manuals — 286 hp and 324 hp.

Horsepower range in the data is 162–324 hp (span 162 hp). Peak torque range is 250–428 Nm (span 178 Nm). Peak power rpm is 5500 on both 162 hp versions and 6000 on the rest. Turbo versions use compression 8; naturally aspirated versions that list compression use 10.

The 3.0 AT 225 hp first-generation Coupe is listed at 165 kW; the two 3.0 MT 225 hp Coupes are 166 kW. That 1 kW gap is in the source, not a rounding step invented here.
