Hyundai 1.6-liter GDI engine – Click above to watch the videos after the break<\/a>
\n<\/small><\/strong><\/em><\/div>\n

\nWe already saw the new Hyundai Verna<\/a> – known as the Accent<\/a> in some other parts of the world, including here in the United States – debuted at the Beijing Motor Show<\/a>, but the Korean automaker had other important new tidbits to show off as well. Specifically, a direct injected version of its Lambda V6 engine, a new direct-injected 1.6-liter four and an eight-speed automatic transmission.<\/p>\n

While all three developments are notable for various reasons, we’re naturally rather drawn to the new DI V6 engine, which was shown in a longitudinal arrangement. That means we can likely expect to see this updated six in rear-wheel-drive platforms first, such as the Genesis Sedan<\/a> and Coupe<\/a> and the new Equus<\/a> luxury cruiser. It’s not a stretch to imagine this mill mated up with the eight-speed auto, either. Power for the DI V6 comes out to only 296 horses, but that’s likely an underrated configuration, as it’s less than what the Genesis Coupe makes now.<\/p>\n

As for the 1.6-liter directed-injected four, you can count on that powerplant showing up in the next-gen Accent and possibly the Elantra<\/a> as well. Power comes in at 138 ponies, which compares rather well with the 110 horsepower of the current non-direct-injected 1.6-liter four. Hyundai also says the 1.6 is a likely candidate for turbocharging, so that’s something else to look forward to.<\/p>\n

Click on past the break<\/a> for a trio of videos showing off the new technology, if only for the stellar voiceover that we think we’ve heard somewhere before<\/a>.<\/p>\n
