There is no 125hp model in this generation that I'm aware of, however, it's not uncommon for there to be special models to comply with local laws and (CO2) taxes in Europe.

EDIT: The passenger models are EURO6 so have SCR and gained a couple of HP over the non SCR EURO5 van models, that would explain the extra couple of hp.

50mpg should be achievable, but 60mpg will probably require the assistance of the Pyrenese.
Our first leg of the trip wasn't especially efficient. We spent a lot of time in traffic around Pisa and Rome was worse. I'm guessing our first quarter fill after almost 400km at around 42mpg will be about par for the course this trip sadly.
