The engine on service here is a familiar 1.5L inline-4 engine supported by a hybrid system. Mated to a continuously variable automatic transmission, it makes 110 horsepower and 127 lb-ft of torque. The combined fuel economy improves from 32 MPG on the standard gasoline variant to 44 MPG on the hybrid variant, making the increase in sticker price worth it.
