The figures, translated
It uses the 6.0L 12-cylinder turbo and all-wheel drive. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. All-wheel drive sends power to all four wheels, which helps on snow and wet roads; good tires still matter most.
By the EPA's combined rating of 19.6 L/100 km, 300 km takes about 59 litres. For 1,000 km, budget about $343 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$6,850 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
What to expect from the Continental
As a compact car, it is easy to drive and park in the city. Luggage space is 311 litres, enough for about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
Is it right for your trip?
It suits client visits, weddings and special weekends. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.
Try before you buy
Drive the Continental on your commute before you commit to it. Rent first, buy later: a week with the Continental answers the big questions. Rent the Continental first, and buy only if it fits your life.
What it costs to run
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$6,850 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular.
Which one to look for
Within the 2005 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay.
