This engine’s maximum power comes at 153 horsepower (155 PS) at 4,000rpm with its maximum torque at 266 lb ft (360Nm) at1,500-2,800rpm. The Turismo is made to supply low end torque for all kinds of road conditions. This model is offered with a five speed automatic transmission (T-Tronic), or a six speed manual transmission.
Exterior
The front of this model has a very solid stance because of its hexagonal-shaped radiator grille, as well as its trapezoidal bumper. The overall design of this car disguises its rather large exterior size quite well.
This model is available in five colors: black, wine black, silver, white and gunmetal grey.
Interior
The 2013 Turismo comes with a wide range of standard features such as electronically operated heated door mirrors , air conditioning; leather covered gear knob and steering wheel, MP3 CD, RDS radio, USB and auxiliary port, as well as Bluetooth connectivity.
The Turismo ES model comes with leather upholstery, heated front seats, powered adjustable driver’s seat, Eco-cruise control, and also rear parking sensors.
Because this vehicle has a long wheelbase, there is plenty of interior space. Up to seven adults can easily travel in comfort, along with their entire luggage in the back.
This model has three rows for seating, with a large load area than can be increased when the third row is removed. The second seating row has handy walk-through access to reach the third row. It can be folded down so it can be used as tables.
Turismo EX
The EX is a 4×4 which has all the standard features, plus a heated lower windshield that prevents wipers from freezing, rain sensitive wipers, along with solar controlled glass. This model also has eco-cruise control.
