2009 could be the year for fiat Powertrain with features emerging such as the two-cylinder turbo, turbo-charged 1.8L, dry twin-clutch, automatic transmission and last but definitely not least, the Multijet II. Alfredo Altavilla, managing director of Fiat Powertrain, has much to be positive about.

He explains how they have developed an engine such as the SGE that still complies with Euro 5 anf Euro 6 anti-pollution legislation, which will come into effect in 2014. In the aspirated, turbo and natural gas Fiats, all the 900cc engines will have CO2 emissions of less than 100 grams per kilometre.

Multiair technology is the apple of Fiat’s eye, which, with its valve control, takes power to levels comparable to the Multijet. A power range of between 65 and 105 hp will be on offer. 2009 will see the second generation Multijet for Fiat, making this an exiciting year for Fiat’s powerhouse.
