To be honest, finding a brand new engine without some sort of variable valve timing is very very unlikely given the emission and fuel economy standards. Maybe China or India, but I think they've caught up...

Under Engine you will find Type

DOHC 16-valve horizontally opposed 4-cylinder Dual AVCS 2.0 ℓ

* 2: When unleaded premium gasoline is not available, you can also use regular unleaded gasoline, but engine performance will decrease.
