The new 98 kW, 2.0-litre engine is a willing worker and offers good pulling power in the lower to middle reaches of the rev range. Under most conditions, you get pretty good throttle response. The clutch action is smooth and light as well. On the downside, a fair bit of engine and exhaust noise intrudes into the cabin, particularly when the engine is working hard. Around town, it is quite cosseting, offering pretty good bump absorption.
