Additional Notes
|
“Flying” is a trim name, and many listings online still describe the older first-generation Flying (405 km CLTC, 38.88 kWh, front-wheel drive). The figures above are for the new car.
Weights and the ADAS pack are from filings covering the whole range, not Flying alone.
Range figures use CLTC, which reads higher than WLTP or EPA. The European Surf Comfort is a different car, with a 43.2 kWh pack, 115 kW and 310 km of WLTP range. |
