An all-new 1.3-litre direct-injection turbocharged engine is mated to a segment-first nine-speed automatic transmission that increases fuel efficiency and reduces emissions. This new engine is now standard on Limited and Trailhawk models and optional on Sport and North models. The sophisticated new engine produces an impressive 177 horsepower and 200 lb-ft of torque. This combination contributes to outstanding on-road and off-road driving dynamics, world-class refinement and a host of innovative safety and advanced technology offerings. The 2.4-litre Tigershark engine continues to be standard on Sport and North models.
