| Torrent |
|
| Torrent stretches the envelope, with impressive overall proportions and a wheelbase measuring 2857 mm (112.5 ft.). That translates into lots of room for both people and cargo, along with a relaxed, comfortable highway ride. There's lots of performance for passing and highway merging, thanks to a 185 hp V6 engine under the hood, sending its power to the driving wheels via a standard 5-speed automatic transmission. Other premium standard features include air conditioning, power windows, power mirrors and power door locks, remote keyless entry and an AM/FM/CD stereo complete with an auxiliary input jack for your iPod® or other audio device. |
