New engine for the high scale of Volvo

The Swedish mark extends his offer of propellents moved by gasoline in his higher scale of vehicles. The newly arrived person receives the denomination of 2.0 GTDi, and it is a question of an engine with 1.999 c.c. of cylinder capacity, overfed by a turbo-compressor, with system of direct injection of fuel and variable opening of the valves, which turns the models of Volvo that mount it in more efficient and ecological cars.

The models chosen in the beginning to incorporate this new propellent are: Volvo S80, V70 and XC60. He announces a maximum potency of 203 Cv to himself to 6.000 returns, with a turning moment of almost 300 available Nm between 1.750 and 4.000 revolutions per minute. Volvo has provided to his new engine with the well-known function as overboost that in short periods of time can increase the turning moment up to 320 Nm.

The engineers of the Swedish mark compare the yield of his engine of four cylinders 2.0 GTDi to that of a 2.5 liters engine and 5 cylinders. To him they can mate so much a manual change of six speeds, as the automatic one of double clutch Powershift also with six relations.

Following a clear market strategy, the Swedish signature will commercialize first this engine in those countries that are provided with a current legislation on motoring that 2.000 should gather a series of incentives for models with engines of minor cylinder capacity to c.c., thus the first places where they will have access to the same one will be Holland, China and Japan.

Volvo S80 will be capable of going on of stopped to 100 km / h in 7,9 seconds (8,5 if he has automatic change), with a 7,9 liters authorized average consumption in mixed circuit (8.3 liters the automatic one) and a few emission of 184 grams of CO2 for kilometer covered (193 with automatic change).

Volvo V70 will be capable of spending from 0 to 100 km / h in 8,3 seconds (8,9 if he has automatic change), with a 8,1 liters authorized average consumption in mixed circuit (8,4 liters the automatic one) and a few emission of 189 grams of CO2 for kilometer covered (195 with automatic change).
