Acura EL Engines and Transmissions

The Acura EL engine in this generation is a 1.7-liter gasoline unit meant for commuting, not high performance. You can pair that powertrain with an automatic transmission in the 1.7 AT sedan or a manual in the 1.7 MT; both examples use a front-wheel-drive drivetrain.
