The four-strong crossover line-up is available with a single engine option, the same K15B unit employed by its hatchback sibling, the Starlet, which we sampled in 2022. The 1.5-litre, naturally aspirated four-pot produces 77 kW and 138 N.m of torque, available from 6 000 r/min and 4 400 r/min, respectively. The petrol powertrain can be had with either a five-speed manual gearbox or a four-speed automatic transmission.
