They have been a long time in the making but the Hyundai Motor Group finally presented its highly anticipated Gamma 1.6 T-GDI petrol and Euro6 R-2.0 diesel engines today.

The presentation was made during ‘The 11thHyundai-Kia International Powertrain Conference’ that takes place on October 19 and 20 at the Rolling Hills Hotel, located near the Hyundai-Kia Motors R&D Center in Korea.

The new member of Hyundai's Gama family of gasoline engines is a 1.6-liter four-cylinder unit that uses a twin-scroll turbocharger along with an air guided intercooler, direct fuel injection system and dual CVVT, to produce a maximum output of 204-horses at 6,000 rpm and a peak torque of 27.0 kgf.m (265Nm or 195 lb-ft) at 1,750 rpm. These numbers will slightly differ depending on the market.

This engine meets California’s stringent ULEV-2 (Ultra-Low Emission Vehicle) standard as well as Euro 5 standards, and it will be used on a variety of Hyundai and Kia vehicles including of course, the Veloster sports hatch, which should get it first in mid-2012.

Hyundai said the Gamma 1.6 T-GDI was developed over a period of 52 months and cost 69.5 billion won (US$61.4 million / €44.4 million).

Superbowl Cheetah ad.
I'm going to test drive one of these when they hit Abby.
Very curious to see how it will drive.


From the press release:

CUSTOM TWO-WHEEL TUNER INSPIRATION
Veloster Turbo's unique design takes inspiration from a custom high-performance sport bike. One of the most popular sport bike upgrades is to modify the exhaust. Hyundai designers have removed the Veloster's trapezoidal center exhaust and replaced it with two larger free flowing circular pipes.

Heeheee, they used sport bike exhausts for inspiration?  OK.
