With a new 3.5-liter V6 comes more power: 270 horsepower and 251 lb.-ft. of torque mated to a five-speed automatic transmission that delivers power either to all four wheels – as in our tester – or to the fronts. That delivery is exquisitely smooth, though geared for fuel economy. In other words, it’ll dump you into the next gear before the engine really needs it, resulting in less performance but less gas slurping.
