    The 1.6 liter CDTi ECOTEC is also available with 136HP (100 kW) and 320Nm (237 lb-ft) of torque. The combined cycle is just 4.1 liters / 100 km with emissions of just 109 g/km CO2.

    This new generation engine and its innovative engine control unit have been entirely developed in-house by a global team of engineers in Turin, Rüsselsheim and the USA.

  • 2013 Opel Zafira Tourer 1.6 CDTI – 136HP and 320Nm

    After the announcet of the powerful Zafira Tourer 2.0 CDTI, Opel will present the new 2013 Zafira Tourer 1.6 CDTI at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show, next month. The super-efficient diesel van offers good performance and low fuel consumption.

    What is more, this is the cleanest diesel engine in the company’s history. It is equipped with Opel “BlueInjection” SCR (selective catalytic reduction) technology. This means that the new 1.6 CDTI already meets future stringent Euro 6 emissions limits.

    The 1.6 liter CDTI ECOTEC has 136HP (100 kW) and 320Nm (237 lb-ft) of torque. The combined cycle is sensational – 4.1 liters / 100 km with emissions of just 109 g/km CO2. No other monocab on the market place offers such a great combination of high torque and performance and fuel economy. The top speed is 193 km/h (120 mph), but no words about 0-100 km/h acceleration.

    The new 1.6 CDTI ECOTEC does not only set benchmarks for performance with its high power and torque density but also for refinement with an outstandingly low level of noise, vibration and harshness.

    This new generation engine and its innovative engine control unit have been entirely developed in-house by a global team of engineers in Turin, Rüsselsheim and the USA.

  • Opel’s new engine – 1.6 CDTI with 136HP and 320Nm

    Opel has introduced a new four-cylinder, turbo-diesel engine. The 1.6-liter CDTI ECOTEC diesels will replace existing 1.7-liter engines. The 1.6 liter CDTI Ecotec boasts nice performance and super-low fuel consumption.

    It features closed-loop combustion control and an aluminum block. This is the first diesel from Opel to comply with future EURO 6 emissions requirements. It will be also available in a variety of power outputs across several carlines.

    The all-new 1.6 CDTI also boasts class-leading attenuation of noise, vibration and harshness, high power/torque density and low fuel consumption. It has 136HP (100 kW) and 320Nm (237 lb-ft). The fuel consumption is reduced up to 10% compared with similarly powerful 2.0-liter diesels.

    Beginning in spring, the 1.6 CDTI ECOTEC will be manufactured at the same “flex plant” as the new 1.6-liter gasoline engine, in Szentgotthard in Hungary.

    “The comprehensive renewal of our powertrain portfolio continues at wide-open throttle,” commented Dr. Thomas Sedran, Deputy Chairman of the Opel Management Board.

    “Our new 1.6-liter diesel will set benchmarks for refinement, performance and environmental compatibility. By the end of this year we will have launched three all-new generations of gasoline and diesel engines, as part of our roll-out of 23 new models and 13 new powertrains by 2016.” , he finished.
