According to the British carmaker, the hot hatch is powered by a 1.6-liter 4-cylinder twin-scroll turbocharged engine which produces a total output of 216 hp and 207 lb-ft of torque. It is mated to a 6-speed manual transmission, allowing the car to accelerate from 0-62 mph in 6.3 seconds and hit a top speed of 150 mph.
