# 7- Turbo power times two
Two in two ways, that is. For starters, there are both 4-cylinder and 6-cylinder turbo models. The 4 that comes with the 2.5T Advanced trim is good for 300 hp and 311 lb-ft of torque, and the 6 that comes with the 3.5T Prestige trim 375 hp and 391 lb-ft – but the latter gets not one, but two turbochargers. Power delivery is incredibly smooth, and there’s always more than enough for highway passes and the like. All that power is sent through an 8-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters on both models.
# 8 - It can accelerate, but can it handle?
Well, the AWD system helps but in addition, the V6 model gets electronically-controlled dampers that are controlled by a computer that reads the road ahead and adjusts their firmness accordingly. This makes for an even smoother ride, while the strut tower braces in the engine bay help insulate the cabin from any shocks the road can throw their way. Body roll is also nicely controlled thanks to the car’s low centre of gravity.
