Hyundai is finally going turbo on a proper scale, after watching its major competitors (except Toyota and Honda) go turbo on 4-cylinder engines. The new Gamma 1.6 T-GDI is a petrol turbo of quite excellent performance, while the R-2.0 turbo diesel offers amazing fuel consumption as well.


First up is the Gamma, which is a 1.6-litre,. It cost Hyundai R500 million and about 4 years to develop this engine, which means they 4-cylinder turbo started on it around the year 2007. The little dynamo offers 152kW at 6000rpm and peak torque of 265Nm at 1750rpm.

As for the diesel, that displaces 2.0-litres and produces 110kW, as well as 382Nm of torque. Very impressive indeed. Both engines meet stringent Euro emissions standards, with the Gamma meeting Euro 5 and the R meeting Euro 5.

“Due to stricter environmental regulations and policies that vary from nation to nation, competition in the development of powertrains and other core technologies is intensifying,” said Woong-Chul Yang, vice chairman of the Hyundai Motor Company. “Hyundai Motor will accelerate its efforts to develop future powertrains that feature high-performance and eco-friendly engines and transmissions.”
