The vehicle includes three lockable differentials to improve off-road capability, allowing the driver to adapt the distribution of force between the wheels as needed to optimize traction.

Despite its power, fuel consumption is expected to be around 12,8 km/l. For an SUV that combines three engines and delivers more power than many super sports cars, such as the Ferrari Roma, these consumption figures are considerable.
