The diesel Levante can accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 6.9 seconds and onto a top speed of 230 km/h. The SUV weighs 2,205 kg kerb.

Internationally, there is also a 3.0 V6 Twin Turbo petrol on offer with two states of tune, 350 hp and 430 hp.

Suspension is a double-wishbone on the front axle and multi-link on the rear, combined with electronically controlled damping, four corner air-springs providing 5 dynamic ride levels (plus one additional park-position).

Driver assistance systems include adaptive cruise control with automatic Start&Stop function, forward collision warning, automatic brake assist system and lane departure warning.
