Arkana engines
hybrid range
In town, you can make fuel savings of up to 40% and drive silently in electric mode for up to 80% of your journey time whilst recharging the battery automatically when you decelerate and brake. No need to plug in.
The electric system assists the engine when accelerating to give you a better driving experience and lower fuel consumption.

- 1.3 L compressed petrol combustion engine
- EDC automatic gearbox
- reduced CO₂ emissions
technology
Arkana’s mild hybrid technology combines the power of the 140 hp and 160 hp, 1.3 L compressed petrol engine with the assistance of the 12 V mild hybrid electric system for enhanced efficiency. The Lithium-ion battery that powers the system recharges itself by recovering kinetic energy during deceleration.
main characteristics
The electric assistance limits the impact of the combustion engine during the start-up and acceleration phases, by reducing fuel consumption and CO₂ emissions. This gives you a smoother and more energetic ride for greater driving comfort.
