Most models run on a 2.5-liter engine without a turbo, pumping out 191 horsepower and 181 pound-feet of torque. This powerplant pairs with an eight-speed automatic transmission. The GT trim comes with a turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine that cranks out 290 horsepower and 311 pound-feet of torque. Both powertrains use advanced gasoline direct injection technology. The GT's version adds multi-port injection for increased power output. Different compression ratios, such as 13.0:1 for standard trims and 10.5:1 for the GT, ensure regular models sip fuel while the GT packs a punch.
