And that is where you’ll find that ‘small’ three-cylinder story come to an end. This is something you can expect from a three-cylinder engine.

Strangely enough, the only vibrations you’ll feel are at idle, and that too, tiny amounts from the seats. Slot that key into the ignition and turn it (yes, you still don’t get push button start/stop) and the new engine comes to life with a thrum that your ears will instantly recognise as the clattery noise of a three-cylinder engine. The only transmission option for now is a 6-speed manual, although a 6-speed torque converter will be offered in the near future. And the turbocharger helps it dish out a healthy 110PS and 175Nm of peak torque. Your only option now is a 1.0-litre, three-cylinder turbo petrol engine.
