Powertrain Options and Availability
Base models got a 2.4-liter 4-cylinder engine that produced 149 horsepower, but the GLS sedan contained a twincam V6 rated at 170 hp. In 2002 Hyundai announced that it overstated the horsepower number on 4-cylinder models and revised that number to 138. Both engines could work with either a 5-speed manual gearbox or 4-speed automatic transmission.
