Yes, however I would advise caution as these are early specs and they could be printed incorrectly.

Also, based on my own cars, Lane Departure Warning is standard on fairly low specification cars but traffic sign recognition is only on the higher spec ones (Range Rovers). So whilst some of the physical tech might be there, the back end processor or software enablement may not be.

A simple question
From the gear ratios

auto version: 0.697x 1.320 = 0.920
manual : 1.000 x 1.000 = 1,000

Does this mean auto will have lower RPM on roads cruising? (I think it was same before)


by the way I am located in Istanbul Turkey. We only have SZ5 here auto. And the price is 24500 Euros including everything tax etc. led lights etc.
Comparing with the price of Subaru XV in UK, (a japanese import example), we find it more expensive "relatively" here, probably because there are not many for sale yet. I would buy it if it was around 20-21k with that configuration.

edit:
(uk prices)
subaru 1.6 xv base : 25310 pounds
jimny sz5 auto: 19000 pounds.

here in Turkey. they are both 24500 euros. interesting.

Not sure, but the Honest John review of the auto model states that 70mph = 3500rpm
