The powerful 3.5-liter i-VTEC® V-6 engine produces an impressive 279 horsepower and 252 lbs.-ft. of torque, while the refined Variable Cylinder Management (VCM) system and low-friction technology produce class-leading efficiency.The efficient front-drive model has an EPA fuel economy rating of 20 / 29 / 2327 city/highway/combined, while the AWD model does nearly as well with a 19 / 28 / 22 rating.
VTEC combined with Variable Cylinder Management enables cylinders to be shut off at cruising speeds in order to increase highway fuel efficiency. Fuel efficiency is enhanced by lower-friction piston rings, the ability to run on lower viscosity oil and transmission fluid, and other friction-reducing features.
All-aluminum construction, a hollow camshaft, and other weight-saving measures keep the engine lighter for better handling.
The Drive-by-Wire™ throttle system provides a precise balance of smooth and responsive operation by adjusting throttle sensitivity to varying driving conditions.
Access to the engine is more convenient with the addition of hood dampers this year that hold the hood up without the need of a manual strut.
