| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Great mileage, though not as great as I had expected. But then again, this is no Hybrid. |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
It is a reasonably sized car with a very good fuel efficiency and good response of the powertrain. |
