The engine will deliver the same capacities as it does elsewhere in the Mazda lineup: up to 250 hp and 320 ln-ft of torque, when using 93-octane gasoline. Stick to regular 87-octane gasoline, and those top figures go down to 227 hp and 310 lb-f of torque. The company’s i-Activ all-wheel-drive system is included standard.
