Diesel engine / common rail / direct fuel injection - max. 2 776 cc, max. 120 kW | R 428 DOHC
This is the first family of VM engines utilizing the Common Rail injection system. The base engine, developed in the mid '90s, turned out to be the longest-lasting VM product, maintaining the most advanced technology, over the years, up to the current Euro 5 version. Several years back, the production volume target of 300,000 engine produced was achieved and this amount is still growing, thanks to the best in class technologies utilized in the original design. Product reliability and durability, refined and guaranteed by the large volumes in the field, is one of the major quality of the series. Flexibility in both application and installation enables the use on different vehicles, from SUV to MPV, from Light Duty Truck to off-road vehicles, with different installation patterns and functional objectives: from excellent fuel economy to powerful performance, from low NVH to perfect drivability.
Major technical features are: 4 valves per cylinder, driven by double overhead camshaft arrangement, options of FGT and VGT turbocharger with intercooler, 1600 bar CR injection system, cooled EGR system and balance shaft.
A 2.5L version of the same engine completes the family. They share all components except pistons, liner and crankshaft.
