Powertrain Options and Availability
The base 2.5TL sedan carries the previous Vigor's 2.5 liter inline 5-cylinder engine (with four valves per cylinder), developing 176 horsepower. Beneath the upscale 3.2TL's hood sits a 24-valve 3.2-liter, 200-horsepower V6, borrowed from the larger Legend L/LS. Both engines connect to an electronically controlled 4-speed automatic transmission with "Grade Logic" control and a gated gearshift lever. No manual-shift models have been produced.
