The engine is a liquid-cooled, 4-stroke 8-valve, SOHC parallel 2-cylinder engine with PGM-FI electronic fuel injection. As far as power is concerned, the engine delivers a maximum output of 38.1kW at 6,250 rpm and 62 Nm of torque at 4750 rpm. Needless to say that it was especially engineered to be as efficient as possible; thereby it offers an average fuel consumption of 78.6 mpg.
