Standard on the GLS and Limited would be a 175-horsepower 2.4-liter 4-cylinder engine.

Optional on that model and standard on all others would be a 6-speed automatic. Available safety features should include ABS, traction control, antiskid system, curtain side airbags, and front side airbags. Seats made from a cloth and leather combination might be standard on the SE and Limited. Heated front seats would be standard only on the Limited.
