Mitsubishi Motors expanding use of new engine

  • 14/06/1998

Mitsubishi Motors Corp. will begin installing new models of its gasoline direct-injection engines in cars for the Japanese, U.S. and European markets starting this autumn. To meet the stricter emissions standards, the latest version of the fuel-efficient engine has been matched with new catalytic convertors that reduce emissions of nitrogen oxides and uncombusted hydrocarbons and other such emission by about 80% from conventional versions of the technology.
