ElantraClub - For Elantra Owners and Enthusiasts _ The Kia Zone _ Theta vs. Nu

Posted by: Neanderthal Jul 5 2012, 01:17 PM

Puzzled a bit by the Theta and Nu mills.
Theta powers the Forte, is 1998cc, 156HP @ 6200, 144TQ @ 4300.
Nu powers the Soul, is 1999cc, 164HP @ 6300, 148TQ @ 4800.

From what I've observed it seems the Nu shows more real world power and MPG. Highway MPG figures for the Forte (sedan Cd=.29) and Soul (Cd=.42 from the only source I could find) are very close.

Allied trannies and final drives would also be nice to know, as well as WFO shift points on the 6-speed autos.

Yes, I don't want much.

Thanks for any help, internet searches have turned up little so far.
