Also to avoid any confusion...

115 is the designation for the 116ps version.
135 is the designation for the 131ps version.

"ps" stands for "PferdeStarke" which is German for "horsepower". But the calculation for brake horsepower is slightly different. 1bhp = 0.987ps. So, the 116ps=117.5bhp and the 131ps=132.7bhp.
