It measures 4,870 mm in length, 1,920 mm in width, and 1,680 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2,917 mm.

Powertrain options include both extended-range electric (EREV) and battery-electric (BEV) variants. The EREV version pairs a 1.5T engine with an electric motor, delivering up to 214 km of pure electric range under the WLTC cycle. The BEV variant offers a maximum motor output of 340 horsepower and a CLTC-rated range of up to 630 km.
