The RVR Black Edition comes with the top tier 2.4-litre L4 engine, which produces 168 horsepower and 167 pound-feet of Torque. Transmission is via a Sportronic CVT unit linked to an all-wheel control (AWC) powertrain system instead of the base five-speed manual transmission with the entry-level front-wheel-drive models. The AWC system is impressive with a simple button in the centre console that allows for driver selectable standard front-wheel drive, automatic 4WD, or 4WD lock modes depending on terrain surface and condition. An electronic manual mode is available, teamed with steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters. Showcasing a premium, value minded list of features, the RVR is packed with cutting edge entertainment, driver’s aid technologies and advanced safety features. Features such as Active Stability Control (ASC), Hill Start Assist (HSA), and Anti-lock Brakes (ABS) are just a few of RVRs premium features. Cabin-wise the RVR has a spacious front interior and enough room in all quarters with a light 1,490-kilo (3,285-lb) curb weight the fuel economy is good with an estimated 10.5 L/100km city, 8.6 highway and 9.6 combined.
