General
The technical data and specifications in the
Owner's Handbook are reference figures. Data
relating to a specific vehicle can deviate from
this, for example, due to selected optional
equipment, national-market versions or coun-
try-specific measurement procedures. Detailed
values can be found in the permit documents,
on signs on the vehicle or can be requested
from an authorised Service Partner or another
qualified Service Partner or a specialist work-
shop.
The information in the vehicle documents al-
ways takes precedence over the information in
the Owner's Handbook.
Dimensions
Dimensions can vary depending on the model
version, equipment or country-specific meas-
urement method.
In addition, the height of the vehicle may vary,
for example, due to tyres and load.
