[. . . ] The unladen weight and payload both include the fuel tank 90% full, driver (68 kg) and luggage (7 kg) in line with EU directive 95/48. From 1, 000 m above sea level and for every 1, 000 m thereafter 10% of the vehicle/trailer weight (trailer weight + gross vehicle weight) must be deducted. 04) Thanks to the knock control, unleaded four star (at least 95 RON) can be used instead of unleaded Super plus. In order to achieve maximum fuel consumption benefits on the TSI engine, Ultra Low Sulphur Petrol (ULSP) must be used. The consumption calculation according to 1999/100/EC is based on the actual unladen weight of the vehicle. Additional specifications can lead to a higher weight class and hence to consumption figures of this higher weight class. The driving style, road and traffic conditions, environmental influences and vehicle condition can in practice lead to consumption figures, which may differ from those calculated with this standard. 07) The weight of a vehicle will influence the level of CO2 emission it produces; as a result, vehicles with higher levels of specification and factory-fitted options may emit higher levels of CO2.
