It will be powered by Earth Dreams 1.5 liter i-VTEC petrol power-plant that will deliver 118 PS and 145 Nm torque. Honda also claims that this petrol engine will be accompanied with a new 6-speed CVT (continuously variable transmission) that will be offering a “sporty performance and great fuel efficiency”.
