Vehicle features and options
This chapter describes model-specific
equipment, systems, and functions that are
currently available, or may become available
in the future, even if they are not present in
the vehicle.
NOTICE
With a range below 30 miles/50 km,
the engine may no longer have sufficient
fuel. Engine functions are not ensured
anymore. There is a risk of damage to
property. Refuel promptly.
Additional information:
Vehicle equipment, refer to page 8.
NOTICE
