What is the displacement of the 320t engine?
1 Answers
320t is a vehicle model designation based on the engine's torque. Typically, this naming convention uses the engine's maximum torque, where 320 represents 320 Newton-meters of maximum torque, and T stands for turbocharging. This engine is likely a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, equivalent to a displacement of 2.5 to 2.7 liters. Taking the GAC Trumpchi GS8 as an example, the details are as follows: 1. Powertrain: The 320T model of the GAC Trumpchi GS8 is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, jointly developed by Changan's headquarters and its UK R&D center. It took six years from project initiation to mass production, and Changan named this six-year project the "Blue Whale." 2. Engine: This engine features a hydraulically controlled dual variable valve timing (DVVT) structure, which allows better control of the valves, ensuring optimal intake and exhaust efficiency under various operating conditions. It also adopts direct fuel injection with side-mounted injectors, promoting more thorough mixing of fuel and air, thereby improving fuel economy. 3. Timing belt: The use of a timing belt helps reduce noise generation. Additionally, a variable displacement oil pump is employed, which can lower fuel consumption by approximately 2%. This technology adjusts oil supply based on engine load, optimizing oil delivery according to actual conditions and minimizing energy loss. 4. Balance shaft: To reduce engine vibration, this engine is equipped with a balance shaft that rotates with the crankshaft. As the crankshaft turns, the balance shaft generates an opposing force to counteract vibrations, enhancing the engine's NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness) performance.
