*Additional equipment and accessories (attachments, tire size, etc.) may change relevant vehicle parameters, such as weight, rolling resistance and
aerodynamics, and, alongside weather and traffic conditions as well as individual driving style, may affect a vehicle’s fuel consumption,
CO2 emissions and performance figures.
**Value range taking into account different chassis and equipment lines in relation to the basic model.
