The length, width, and height of the Atenza are 4870 mm, 1840 mm, and 1445 mm respectively, which are official data. The length of the Atenza refers to the distance between two vertical planes perpendicular to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane and touching the outermost protruding parts at the front and rear of the car. The width refers to the distance between parallel planes to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane and touching the outermost rigid fixed protruding parts on both sides of the vehicle. The height refers to the distance between the highest point of the vehicle and the vehicle's supporting plane. The Atenza uses a 6AT transmission and is equipped with two engines: a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine and a 2.5L naturally aspirated engine. The 2.0L naturally aspirated engine of the Atenza produces 158 horsepower and a maximum torque of 202 Nm, with a maximum power speed of 6400 rpm and a maximum torque speed of 4000 rpm. The 2.5L engine has a maximum output power of 158 horsepower and 192 horsepower, with fuel consumption of 6.3L and 7.1L per 100 km respectively. There are national regulations regarding vehicle dimensions. According to the national standard "GB1589-89," the total width of a vehicle does not include side mirrors. The limitation on vehicle width is to provide sufficient lateral clearance for overtaking in adjacent lanes. In other words, the significance of vehicle width data in the national standard is to ensure enough space during overtaking, preventing accidents due to excessive width or situations where road markings are narrower than the vehicle's width. Additionally, the national regulation stipulates that the total width of a vehicle must not exceed 2.5m to meet the usage requirements of public roads.
I just drove the Atenza, and I remember its body dimensions are approximately 4,870 mm in length, 1,840 mm in width, 1,450 mm in height, with a wheelbase of around 2,830 mm. As someone who commutes daily, I find this size particularly convenient in the city—it's not too large to make parking difficult, nor too small to struggle with shopping bags or weekend trip luggage. I especially love the trunk space; it can fit two or three large suitcases with room to spare, and folding down the rear seats allows for even more storage. The car's height is just right, making getting in and out easy, and driving it in traffic doesn’t feel tiring. The overall design is well-balanced, neither sacrificing driving visibility nor compromising on sportiness, making it perfect for someone like me who values practicality but also enjoys a bit of driving fun. It handles city roads effortlessly and feels stable on the occasional highway drive. The wheelbase provides ample legroom inside, comfortably seating four people.
