Under the hood lies a “2.0 L I4 with a five-speed, front-drive manual transmission or optional four-speed automatic transmission with ’sport shift’ manual shifting capability or a 2.7 L V6 available with the automatic only. Four wheel drive is optional with a Borg-Warner torque controller system. In some markets, the Tucson is also available with a 2.0 L diesel engine equipped with common rail technology”, Wikipedia.com says.
