Don't recall. But it was a rental in Europe, so it was probably a small 4-cyl. That said, it wasn't slow and we had four adults so it must have been a 2.0L Skyactive, I imagine (EDIT: confirmed). This was back in spring of 2015.

(OTOH, back in Fall of 2010 we had a rental Chevy Cruze and OMG, it was frightening how slow it was. Even with a MT it was brutal. Mashing the pedal did nothing at speeds over 50mph. I don't recall what engine it had. Probably a weak 1.6L. EDIT: Found it - 1.6L 111hp)
