Powertrain Options and Availability
Early models used an 88-horsepower, 1.6-liter 4-cylinder engine. During 1995, two dual-overhead-cam 4-cylinder engines were introduced, producing 105 or 122 horsepower. The smaller (1.6-liter) engine was used only in California-market Sephias. Any Sephia engine might drive either a 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic transmission.
