Three major parts of the car - the engine, transmission and chassis, whether the hardware is hard, is a lot of consumers are particularly concerned about. Therefore, the results of the two engines of the "Top 10 Best Engines" and "2018 International Best Engines" each year attract attention.

This year, there are also many new powertrains in the auto market that are used in new cars. Let's take a look. Perhaps the new cars you buy in a year or two will take them.

Mazda is no longer playing the turbine

In the automotive market where turbocharged engines are rampant, Mazda has always insisted on its own way and developed naturally aspirated engines. However, in the face of the popularity of turbine engines, Mazda is no longer obstinate and has entered the turbo era.

On the new generation CX-9, a 2.5T turbocharged four-cylinder engine with a maximum power of 253 horsepower and a peak torque of 420 Nm is matched with a 6AT gearbox with a compression ratio of 10.5:1. Thanks to better exhaust and smaller turbines, this engine's peak torque is available from 2000 rpm, which makes everyday driving easier.

Although it is a turbine, Mazda's proud "Chuangchi Blue Sky" technology is still economical. In the future, whether the Mazda CX-8 and the new Atritz will be introduced will be waiting for verification. We are looking forward to it.

Infiniti's Black Technology - Variable Compression Ratio

When Mazda released Chuangchi Blue Sky Engine, it attracted many fans with “variable compression ratio” gimmicks. However, Mazda Chuangchi Blue Sky Engine is not a true “variable compression ratio” engine, but is equipped on the Dongfeng Infiniti QX50. This new VT-C 2.0T is the world's first mass production model equipped with a variable compression ratio engine.

Compared to the same power V6 engine, its 2.0-liter VC-T engine can save about 27% more fuel. The compression ratio of this engine will vary between 8:1-14:1. The former can provide high boost and high performance while the latter provides fuel economy. The dual-injection system consisting of direct injection and manifold injection in the cylinder, optimized exhaust manifold and cylinder head, equipped with turbo electric pressure relief valve and variable valve timing technology, as long as it can save fuel technology, Taiwan VC-T engine basically used.

Mitsubishi uses 2.2T diesel engine +8AT gearbox

Mitsubishi has to push a lot of new cars this year, such as the new MPV-Delica and a compact SUV- Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross, both are positioned differently, but will be equipped with Mitsubishi 2.2T diesel engine, Eclipse Cross will also match the 8AT gearbox.

In today's urban SUV, Mitsubishi push diesel engine, a little on the standard Haval H6 meaning, of course, the price to control, the top with less than 150,000 have a play.

Honda 2.0T and 10AT accelerate amazing

Honda's 1.5T is not secure? It also has a 2.0T+10AT combo, accelerating 5.9 seconds. This version is powered by the Accord Overseas Edition. It gives the driver the most intuitive experience that is more smooth in the connection of power, and can withstand greater power torque, but unfortunately this golden combination to the domestic Accord is castrated, taking into account the economic efficiency of domestic users The second requirement is also limited by cost.

However, the whole new generation of Acura RDX or will be made in China, it is standard with 2.0T+10AT, maximum output power of 272 horsepower, peak torque of 380 Newton meters, want to use it to compete with Mercedes-Benz GLC, BMW X3, Audi Q5 what.

Volkswagen, Ford move from double clutch to 8AT

The 8th generation Jetta (new Sagitar) and the new Fox, both exhibited at the North American Auto Show this year, are equipped with an 8AT gearbox, which is better than the dual clutch gearbox in terms of smoothness, transmission efficiency, and shift feel. In fact, domestic users have been guilty of double-clutch gearboxes, with poor heat dissipation, high power consumption, and obvious heat attenuation. This directly affects the rider’s driving experience and maintenance costs. It is “toxic”, so Volkswagen and Ford have abandoned the dual clutches at the same time. It is a pleasure.

But don't be too happy too early. Foreign countries and domestic countries may not necessarily be equal. The masses use 8AT abroad, and the possibility of using double-clutch in the country is still quite high...
