With the right performance,
you can go far.

.4i (168 hp)
Manual transmission
Employing electronic engine management and variable intake valve timing, this in-line five-cylinder
power plant is both lively and sophisticated. In addition to its inspiring performance, this engine also
meets California’s rigorous PZEV emission control requirements.
For the T5 AWD there’s a six-speed manual gearbox
that inspires a sportier style of driving and helps
to further reduce fuel consumption during highway
driving. The smooth action of the clutch assures that
you move off with confidence and grace.
T5 (218 hp) and T5 AWD (218 hp)
The high-performance five-cylinder T5 and T5 AWD engines boast a turbo-charger and variable all
valve timing, delivering quick and powerful response throughout the entire rpm range.
Geartronic automatic transmission
Geartronic offers the best of two worlds. Naturally, it
provides all the benefits of a smooth automatic—put it
in Drive and off you go. Or, take control of the gear
shifting yourself by moving the lever to manual mode.
Then you can nudge the lever through the gears at a
pace of your own. Additionally, at the press of a button,
a special winter mode makes moving off easier on
slippery surfaces. Geartronic is standard on 2.4i and
T5, optional on T5 AWD.
All-wheel drive (AWD)
The T5 AWD electronically controlled all-wheel drive system offers superb road holding on all
surfaces. Power is channeled to the front and rear wheels according to the conditions. Normally
the car is almost entirely front-wheel driven, for optimum stability and fuel economy. As the situation
dictates, up to 50% of the power is instantly redirected to the rear wheels. And since the pair of
wheels with the best grip always receives the most power, the car is exceptionally sure-footed on
slippery roads.
