AFAIK, VGT (Variable Geometry Turbocharger) refers to a turbo charger and not a proprietary engine technology like Mitsubishi's DI-D or Toyota's D-4D. Pls. see the wikipedia article on VGT.

The longevity, performance, etc. of both engines are almost equal. The Hyundai CRDi engine though produces more HP per displacement and can be chipped to produce even more. Mitsubishi's Di-D on the other hand is the more proven one.

zaza.altis * VGT is use to eliminate the turbo lag of the engine..as mentioned by mazdamazda Mitsubishi's Di-D on the other hand is the more proven one. Also, adding to that many CRDi engine claim that their engine has the most fuel efficient, but in real world hindi pala.. you can check all the FC's the vehicle you want to purchase. there so many threads here specially the review on fuel consumption.

Well... consider that both the Mitsubishi and the Hyundai 2.5 are based on the venerable Mitsubishi 4D56... Hyundai's CRDi vehicles in the Philippines have proven generally reliable, despite the poor diesel.

Which two vehicles are you picking between?
