The new one has a turbo’ed flat four. Flat fours are cool. NA flat sixes are better. I guess there was no avoiding forced induction.

The CO2 #s on the new ones mean they’re in the lower tiers for Belgium and other places. Given that higher tiers can add 2500 Euros (or more) to the price of a car, that makes sense.

I’m sure it does, and I really don’t think they had a choice either. I’m gonna miss the flat six though!
