Brilliance 1.8T engine
Brilliance held a ceremony on Monday for the launch of it's new 1.8 turbo engine, the first Chinese turbo intercooled gasoline engine to go into production, designed by FEV of Germany.
125KW (5500rpm), 235 Nm Torque. Euro 4 emission level ( current level used in Europe and good enough for US I believe).
It will be going in the M2 and M1 sedans, with auto transmission at first, and then later (I think maybe end this year or early next year) with a manual transmission. M2 GT version will have a 6 speed manual transmission.
Normally aspirated variants of the engine will follow, including 2.0, 1.8, 1.6 and possibly 1.4).
I might be getting some pics later, but I expect someone can find them on chinese internet.
