Powertrain Options and Availability
Three different engines were available in 1990: a 1.5-liter 4-cylinder that made 81 horsepower; a dual-cam 1.6-liter rated at 113 horsepower; and for the 4WD wagon, a 1.8-liter four that developed a modest 87 horsepower. The 2WD wagon's 1.5-liter 4-cylinder engine made just 75 horsepower. A year later, all three engines were gone, supplanted by a single 1.5-liter 4-cylinder that put out 92 horsepower.
