The Rover 200 216 GTi Twin Cam combines a compact five-door hatchback body with a naturally aspirated petrol engine designed for responsive performance. Its five-seat cabin and 12.4-cubic-foot luggage compartment provide everyday practicality, while the transverse front-engine layout and front-wheel-drive configuration make efficient use of its compact dimensions. The GTi’s twin-cam design distinguishes it from less powerful Rover 200 versions, and its independent front and rear suspension gives the chassis a purposeful mechanical specification. A five-speed manual gearbox completes this practical, driver-focused hatchback package.
For the 1991–1993 model range, the Rover 200 216 GTi Twin Cam uses a naturally aspirated 1.6-litre inline-four gasoline engine with double overhead camshafts, 16 valves, and multi-point fuel injection. AutoSpecsHub lists maximum power at 128 hp at 6,800 rpm and peak torque of 105 lb-ft at 5,700 rpm. A five-speed manual transmission sends power to the front wheels. The suspension consists of MacPherson struts at the front and double wishbones at the rear, with front disc brakes and rear drum brakes. Listed performance figures include a top speed of 125 mph and 0–60 mph acceleration in 8.3 seconds. Combined fuel economy is rated at 28.3 mpg.
