Which version to choose

Compare only with numbers above.

If you need the highest measured power and the shortest measured 0–100, 1 generation restyling `3.0 AT` 258 hp is 258 hp / 580 Nm, 7.3 s, 207 km/h, AWD, Automatic 8. Versus `3.0 AT` 224 hp that is +34 hp and +30 Nm, 0.6 s quicker (7.9−7.3), +14 km/h (207−193). Versus `3.0 AT` 204 hp: +54 hp, +80 Nm, 1.8 s quicker (9.1−7.3), +23 km/h. Trade-off: `3.0 AT` 258 hp mixed consumption is not measured; CO2 is 220 vs 204 on the 204/224 hp `3.0 AT`. Kerb is 2241 kg vs 2128 (`3.0 AT` 224, +113 kg) vs 2078 (`3.0 AT` 204, +163 kg). Gross 3500 vs 2920 (+580 kg vs the other V-shaped diesels). Rear brakes on `3.0 AT` 258 hp are Disc; on `3.0 AT` 224 and 204 they are Drum.

If you want 2.0 Diesel with Automatic on 1 generation, `2.0 AT` 180 hp is 180 hp / 420 Nm, 8 gears. RWD: 10.9 s, 179 km/h, mixed 8.2, CO2 216, kerb 1920, clearance 192. AWD: same 10.9 s and 179 km/h, mixed 8.3 (+0.1), CO2 219 (+3), kerb 1996 (+76 kg). Same 0–100; AWD costs 76 kg and 0.1 L/100 km mixed.

If you want the lightest measured pickup in this set, 1 generation `2.0 MT` 160 hp Gasoline is 1737 kg kerb, 3000 kg gross, 10.5 s, 182 km/h, mixed 7.6, clearance 230 mm, RWD, 300 Nm — 120 Nm less than Diesel `2.0 MT` 180 hp (420−300). CO2 and wheels are not measured on this version.

Among 1 generation `2.0 MT` 180 hp, RWD is the quickest of the 2.0 Manual set at 10.3 s and 184 km/h, kerb 1909, clearance 203, mixed 8.0. The slower AWD row is 11.3 s / 174 km/h / mixed 7.6 / kerb 1988 / clearance 192 — 1.0 s slower, 10 km/h lower top speed, 79 kg heavier, 11 mm less clearance, 0.4 L/100 km lower mixed. The other AWD 180 hp row is 10.6 s / 183 km/h / mixed 8.0 / same 1988 kg.

`2.0 MT` 122 hp vs 140 hp (same AWD, Manual 6): both 13.7 s and 161 km/h; 122 hp uses mixed 7.7 vs 7.9, CO2 202 vs 208, kerb 1983 vs 1968. RWD 122 vs 140: both 13.5 s and 163 km/h; mixed 7.7 both; city 9.2 vs 9.5.

`2.0 MT` 163 hp AWD (Euro 5) is 11 s / 181 km/h / clearance 249 mm — the highest measured clearance in the set, 57 mm above the 192 mm AWD diesels (249−192). RWD 163 hp: 10.5 s / 182 km/h / 249 mm / kerb 1903.

2 generation peak Diesel is `2.0 AT` 204 hp (150 kW), still 420 Nm like 150 and 170 hp versions — power differs, torque does not in the data. Gasoline peak is `2.3 AT` 302 hp / 222 kW, Automatic 10, RWD or AWD; torque not measured. 2 generation restyling keeps 150 and 170 hp Diesel and 302 hp Gasoline; there is no 204 hp row in the restyling list. Note: restyling names `2.0 AT 4WD` 150 hp and `2.3 AT 4WD` 302 hp are recorded with Drive RWD in the drive field; `2.0 MT 4WD` 150/170 hp and `2.0 AT 4WD` 170 hp are AWD. Choose by that field, not by the name alone.

For measured fuel use on a work 2.0 Diesel AWD, restyling / 1 generation `2.0 MT` 180 hp (11.3 s row) at mixed 7.6 L/100 km and CO2 199 is the lowest mixed among 180 hp AWD diesels with a figure. For measured GVM of 3500 kg, only `3.0 AT` 258 hp is listed at that gross weight.
