The standard trim model comes with an exciting range of tech and safety features. You’ll find an 6.5-inch touchscreen infotainment system. Safety features include forward collision warning, rear parking sensors and autonomous emergency braking. There’s plenty of space in the car with a 525-litre capacity boot, large door pockets and even storage under the central armrest.

Engine Specifications
The UK specifications will allow buyers to choose from two petrol engines and one diesel model. The petrol models include a 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbo, which can achieve an impressive 276bhp. The bigger 2.9-litre V6 engine, developed by Ferrari, is available in the top of the range spec model, the Quadrifoglio. This Quadrifoglio model can achieve 0-62mph in just 3.9 seconds and boasts 503bhp, impressive right?
If you aren’t looking at the petrol models then you take a look at the diesel 2.2-litre turbo engine, the same engine found in the Alfa Romeo Giulia model. It offers 207bhp and is predicted to be the most popular model when it comes into the showrooms later this year.
