2001 May, right: The Honda i-series engine, 1.3 liter, 4-cylinder. The "intensive combustion" engine features "Dual and Sequential Ignition" (i-DSI). That is to say each cylinder has twin spark plugs fired at different times, and in a different order according to load and speed. (The main aim is to achieve a high compression raio without knocking.)

The engine is fitted with the Multimatic S CVT transmission and Honda claims "fuel efficiency figures of 4.35 litres per 100km and ?year 2010? --> 2010 fuel efficiency standards."
