current models of kia and hyundai already using cvvt, which is equivalent to vvti/ivtec. most likely forte will be using the same engine as spectra5, 1.6 cvvt timing chain.

it will not be possible to have a 1.3 ton car with 1.6 engine to achieve 20km/l, then those ppl need to look for kelisa or viva or maybe savvy. i'll be happy for 12km/l for urban driving.

ya, 2.0 will be more suitable for this car but it will then affect the optima, unless they are bringing in the optima 2.4

but with 124hp, that's not too bad as it's already one of the highest for 1.6 engines

125 only for exora. waja & gen2 only 121
