Description
The 1.6L engine with the 8th digit VIN '3' is a modern powertrain equipped with automatic stop-start technology, designed to enhance fuel efficiency in urban driving conditions. This naturally aspirated inline-4 engine features direct fuel injection, which, coupled with the stop-start system, reduces fuel consumption by automatically shutting down the engine during idle periods and restarting it when needed. The engine's single overhead camshaft (SOHC) design, with electronically controlled valve lift and timing, ensures smooth and efficient operation across various driving conditions. This engine is particularly well-suited for city driving, where frequent stops and starts can benefit from the fuel-saving technology. It offers a seamless driving experience with reduced emissions and improved fuel economy, making it an eco-friendly choice for the environmentally conscious driver.
