Kia Shuma Specs, Engines & Dimensions (1997–2001) — First Generation
The first-generation Kia Shuma Liftback pairs a passenger-car cabin with a practical tailgate. Here you will find how this generation’s gasoline powertrains work, so you can match a drivetrain to the way you drive.
The Kia Shuma engine lineup for this Liftback generation is gasoline, with the 1.8 MT and 1.8 AT as typical examples. You choose the powertrain by transmission: a manual for more involvement, or an automatic for easier town driving. Both examples use a front-wheel-drive drivetrain.
