FEATURES


  1. OUTLINE


    1. 2GR-FE Engine


      1. The 2GR-FE engine is a 3.5-liter, 24-valve DOHC V6 engine. This engine uses the Dual VVT-i (Variable Valve Timing-intelligent) system, Direct Ignition System (DIS), Acoustic Control Induction System (ACIS) and Electronic Throttle Control System-intelligent (ETCS-i). These control functions achieve improved engine performance, fuel economy, and clean emissions.

    4. K115 Continuously Variable Transaxle (CVT)


      1. A K115 Continuously Variable Transaxle (CVT) is used on models with 2AR-FE engine.

      2. The K115 CVT, which uses a pair of pulleys and a steel belt as the shift mechanism, is a transaxle which steplessly shifts from starting off to the maximum speed, offering a smooth shift feeling and excellent fuel economy.

        Transaxle Type K115
        Pulley Ratio Forward 2.517 to 0.390
        Reverse 1.752
        Differential Gear Ratio 5.791

    5. Suspension


      1. A MacPherson strut type independent suspension is used for the front.

      2. A double-wishbone type independent suspension is used for the rear.

    6. Steering


      1. The Electric Power Steering (EPS) system uses a power steering motor, a power steering torque sensor and a reduction mechanism that are built into the steering column assembly to generate assist torque, in order to assist the driver's steering effort.

    7. Brake
