On the base 2.0T and 2.0T Premium models, an eight-speed automatic with shift paddles is standard, while the 2.0T R-Spec comes with a standard six-speed manual.
The second engine option comes with the 3.8 models and is a 3.8-liter V6 engine that produces an extremely healthy 348 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque.
