It is powered by two engines choices, both turbocharged 1.5-litre units. The first is a multipoint fuel injection unit that does 150 PS and 226 Nm, while the second is a direct fuel injection unit that is good for 177 PS and 255 Nm. Both engines are hooked up to a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic that sends drive to the front wheels.

Now that the launch date has been confirmed, will you put your money down for one?
