Thankfully I won’t have to live with a Nokia battery propelling this machine if I ever managed to buy it, as the engine powering this beauty (sorry again) would be a 1.-8 litre direct injection naturally aspirated four-cylinder petrol mill producing an impressive 148PS of peak power and 180Nm of peak torque. This is almost official now, but the transmission system to be mated with the engine has not been revealed yet. Guesswork throws out a five or six speed manual as the first possible option though. The car is making its debut at the LA Motor Show next week, and as always, we’ll get you all the info on the car much before that.. so stay tuned!
