Not compared: the sources give no figures for the same stated market and standard body, so differences are not calculated. The figures are listed separately in the table below.
From the documented specifications
- Powertrain Powertrain types in the sourced lists: petrol, diesel, hybrid and plug-in hybrid (92A); petrol and plug-in hybrid (E3). A type missing from a list is not documented here — that does not show it was dropped or new.
- Design Body styles documented for the E3 only: Coupé SUV.
Derived by comparing the sourced lists on the two generation pages; a type missing from a list may also mean it is not documented here yet.
