The 2.0L engine boasts 228 horsepower and up to 258 lb-ft of torque. The 3.6L V6 ups the performance level to 310 horsepower and up to 271 lb-ft of torque. Both options feature a 9-speed automatic transmission and start/stop technology that automatically turns the engine off when the vehicle is stopped with the brake pressed.

3. Ready for Off-Roading 

With the AT4 trim level, you’re stocked with the capability to go off the main road. With active torque control all-wheel drive, a 3.6L V6 engine, and a mode for off-roading with traction selection, the AT4 can tackle rugged terrain. Hill start assist and hill descent control capabilities ensure that you can handle any hill while off-roading.
