Features

Performance

Automatic Transmission

The 4-speed automatic transmission offers quiet operation and shift points that are set to maximize smoothness even in stop-and-go city traffic.

Manual Transmission

The 5-speed manual transmission features friction-reduction measures for lasting performance and lets you select gears quickly with confidence.

Kappa 1.2 MPI Engine

The 84ps, 1.2-liter dual-CVVT MPI engine with piston-cooling jets and coated piston rings is feisty and capable, yet also quiet and efficient.

kappa 1.0

The smooth-running 67-ps, 1.0-liter MPI engine combines efficiency power and fun performance.

Safety

Braking System

The brakes are tuned to work with the ABS and tires to reduce stopping distance, while maximizing stopping power and directional control while braking.

Parking Distance Warning- Reverse

You’re lucky to find a space in the city, and PDWR can help you back in with confidence. Using its sensors, it beeps faster, then continuously as you get closer to a car or object.

Hill-start Assist Control

At a standstill on an inline, HAC prevents you from rolling backward by gently applying the brakes, for up to two seconds, from the time you lift your foot from the brake pedal, giving you time to switch your foot smoothly to the accelerator.

Electronic Stability Control

ESC ensures optimal braking performance and directional control by automatically delivering the right amount of braking force to each wheel according to engine torque and driving circumstances.
