Honda K-series (2023–2026) specs: 2.0L (121.9 ci) 4-cylinder, 86 x 86 mm (3.3858 x 3.3858 in) bore and stroke, 10.8:1 compression. Rated 158 hp, 2023–2026.

The Honda K-series (2023–2026) is exactly square — 3.3858" bore and 3.3858" stroke are the same — which splits the difference between a high-revving layout and a torque layout. The 3.3858" stroke does not reach 4,000 ft/min of mean piston speed until about 7,100 RPM, so piston speed is not what limits this engine's revs — valvetrain and breathing are. Each of the 4 cylinders displaces 30.5 ci (499 cc).

10.8:1 on aluminum heads is in the range that usually runs on pump premium; aluminum sheds heat faster than iron, which makes the same number a little more forgiving.

It is one of 27 engines in the K-series family, the smallest at 121.9 ci. 4 factory variants share these dimensions, rated at 158 hp across 2023–2026.
