A turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that gets 250 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque is the standard engine for all of the vehicle's trim models. If you upgrade to the Select trim level, you will be able to purchase one with a 2.7-liter V6 engine. It generates 335 horsepower and 380 pound-feet of torque. If you choose a Nautilus with the 2.0-liter engine, then the fuel economy is 21 miles per gallon in the city and 25 miles per gallon on the highway.
