The three-cylinder petrol unit from the dragon family is tuned to make 121 bhp and 150 Nm of peak torque, while the four-cylinder oil burner makes 99 bhp and develops 205 Nm of peak torque. While both the motors come with a 5-speed manual gearbox as standard, the petrol version also gets an optional 6-speed automatic torque converter.
