Seats are simply the best in its class.  Perfectly comfortable even during a very long drive.  Now with 8-way power adjustment with memory.

One of the best four cylinder engines in the world, this new 2.3-liter unit is.  With 164 horsepower at a mind boggling 7,000 rpm, it gives the Honda VTEC a good run for its money.
