General info
The type of car.
This allows all four wheels to move up and down independently, providing a smoother ride when, for example, going over bumps in the road.
Four-wheel drive is a system where torque is distributed to all four wheels of the vehicle. It is beneficial in some circumstances such as providing increased traction in tricky weather conditions, but is most suited to off-road driving.
Rear-wheel drive benefits from increased traction when accelerating, as the weight of the vehicle shifts to the rear over the drive wheels. The weight of the car is also more evenly distributed, resulting in improved handling.
A dual-clutch transmission (DCT) is an automated manual transmission that allows the driver to control gear-shifts themselves or to let the computer decide. Upshifts are extremely fast, resulting in smooth acceleration, and due to the uninterrupted power flow it also has the benefit of increasing fuel efficiency.
An electric car runs off a battery that can be recharged at home or at public charging points. Due to the savings costs of electricity compared to petrol (gasoline) it can greatly reduce running costs, and is also better for the environment as the car produces 0 emissions.
A petrol (gasoline) engine offers several advantages over diesel. For example the engines tend to be lighter and cheaper than their diesel counterparts. Petrol engines also tend to have higher horsepower, and the fuel is more readily available.
The turn radius indicates the smallest circular turn a car can make. With a smaller turn radius it is easier to perform a U-turn in one attempt instead of having to reverse back and forth in order to turn around.
The CO2 emissions of the car, measured in grams per kilometre. A car with less emissions is better for the environment.

A larger cargo area is more practical as it allows you to transport more things. With some vehicles you can put the rear seats down in order to gain more space for cargo.
We consider a shorter length better because a compact chassis is generally easier to maneuver.
maximum headroom (front)
Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value. (Dacia Spring Electric (2023))
Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value. (Kia Niro EV (2020))
More headroom in the front of the car makes for a more comfortable driving experience, and is especially important for taller people.
maximum headroom (rear)

More headroom in the rear of the car makes for a more comfortable passenger experience, and is especially important for taller people. It is also useful if you are transporting cargo in the rear of the vehicle.
Speed
The fastest speed that the vehicle can reach.
The time it takes for the car to accelerate from 0-100 kilometres per hour.
coefficient of drag

Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value. (Kia Niro EV (2020))
The coefficient of drag is one measurement of how well air travels around a vehicle. A lower value means it is more aerodynamic and the engine doesn't have to work as hard. It can result in faster speeds and lower fuel consumption.
acceleration time (0-200 km/h)

Engine
Fuel economy is a measurement of fuel efficiency, based on how far you can travel with a certain amount of petrol (gasoline). A lower fuel economy means the car will be cheaper to run.
Torque is a measurement of an engine’s power, closely related to horsepower. More torque indicates a more powerful vehicle and is also a good indication of its acceleration.
Fuel economy is a measurement of fuel efficiency, based on how far you can travel with a certain amount of petrol (gasoline). A lower fuel economy means the car will be cheaper to run.
There are three levels of charging. Level 1 uses a standard household outlet and is the slowest (3–5 miles of range per hour). Level 3 uses DC fast chargers or Tesla superchargers and is the fastest (3–20 miles of range per hour).
With more battery power you can travel on the electric motor further before having to recharge, or in the case of a hybrid switching to the petrol (gasoline) engine.
The maximum distance an electric or hybrid car can travel on electric only, from a full charge (EPA-estimated driving range).
Horsepower is the most common unit for measuring the power of an engine.

This measurement is the total volume of all the engine's cylinders, also known as the engine displacement. This is one of many aspects of an engine that determine its horsepower, but generally speaking a greater size indicates more power.
Fuel economy is a measurement of fuel efficiency, based on how far you can travel with a certain amount of petrol (gasoline). A higher fuel economy means the car will be cheaper to run.
Safety
A collision avoidance system is a safety feature which uses sensors to monitor the road ahead to detect pedestrians, vehicles, and other obstacles. If there is risk of collision, it provides audible and visual warnings.
Automatic emergency braking (AEB) is a safety system that uses sensors to identify imminent collisions and automatically apply the brakes.
Airbags are designed to cushion occupants in the event of an impact. The standard number is around six, but some cars now incorporate additional ones, such as knee airbags, side airbags, and side curtain airbags.
Euro NCAP rating

The European New Car Assessment Programme (Euro NCAP) carries out safety tests for new vehicles, providing an overall rating for each car’s safety. It covers different areas such as safety for an adult occupant, child occupant or pedestrian.
It automatically limits how much the wheels can spin in order to keep traction between the tires and road when driving in dangerous conditions.
A rear-view camera (also known as a back-up camera) provides a view of behind the vehicle, helping to prevent accidents. It is particularly useful in vehicles with large blind spots such as pickup trucks.
A built-in dashcam uses the car’s cameras to record video while driving. This can be especially useful if you have an accident.
Lane assist monitors the car’s position on the road. If the vehicle begins to leave its lane it will alert the driver (or in some systems, actively steer the car back into its lane).
The speed assist system warns the driver when the vehicle’s speed is above the speed limit of the road.
Features
You can create driver profiles that save settings such as the position of the seat, steering wheel, and side mirrors. It’s particularly useful when several people use the same vehicle.
An in-car charging pad allows you to wirelessly charge your phone and other devices.
The steering wheel is heated, so it can keep your hands warm on colder days.
The front seats are heated to warm you on colder days.
The rear seats are heated to warm you on colder days.
It uses a range of sensors to automatically park your car.
How many displays the car is equipped with (e.g. for information/entertainment).
Dual zone air conditioning allows you to set different temperatures for two sections of the car.
In-car entertainment (ICE) provides audio and video entertainment, such as through apps like Netflix, Youtube, games, etc.
