With 115 Hp, this variant provides similar power to the CVT but with a slightly less refined power delivery, likely due to a manual gearbox or a different automatic. Performance remains focused on practicality over speed.

Good fuel economy at 5.8 l/100 km, though slightly higher than the CVT variant. Still a very economical option for its class, offering a balance of control and efficiency.

Best Use Case: City / Mixed Driving
