    There are also available a variety of engines. First of all, the derivative BlueMotion utilizes a 1.6-litre diesel engine producing 110 PS (80 kW) and is mated to a six-speed manual gearbox. The petrol engine line-up here begins with a 1.2-litre TSI 105 PS (77 kW), rising via a 1.4-litre TSI 122 PS (90 kW) unit to a 1.4-litre TSI ACT 140 PS (103 kW) engine with cylinder deactivation.
