Mitsubishi DI-D Hyper Common Rail

[Juan Tamad]

Mitsubishi Motors (Thailand) Co. Ltd. is proud to announce it has developed a new type of diesel engine called the "Direct Injection-Diesel Hyper Common Rail" or DI-D Hyper Common Rail Engine.

The newly developed 2.5-liter and 3.2-liter engines are equipped with direct-injection, common rail fuel delivery systems unlike the current Strada's diesel engines, which use indirect injection with a sub chamber.

Both new engines are scheduled to be fitted on a new pickup truck that is slated to go on sale in Thailand soon.

The common rail system was adopted in that it offers significantly greater freedom and control over fuel injection. Engineered to be able to handle a maximum pressure of 180 MPa, the high-pressure common rail system enables precision control of the injection pressure, injection duration (injection amount), and injection schedule over a wide operating range. As a result, the system promises high output while achieving a reduction in exhaust gases, fuel consumption, and noise.

A turbocharger was added to the 2.5-liter engine and the displacement of one engine was increased to 3.2 liters to increase both maximum torque and maximum output. Further increases in power were achieved through a number of means. A DOHC 16-valve design was adopted, the injector nozzles were centrally positioned, and a cross flow design was created by locating the intake and exhaust manifolds on both sides of the engine to boost both breathing efficiency and combustion efficiency. Other measures include the use of roller rocker arms to reduce friction.

2.5 DOHC Turbo Hyper Commonrail - Max Output 116ps Max Torque 247Nm
2.5 DOHC Turbo Intercooler Hyper Commonrail - Max Output 140ps Max Torque 321Nm
3.2 DOHC Turbo Intercooler Hyper Commonrail - Max Output 165ps Max Torque 351Nm

This should be an interesting upgrade to Mitsu's old Diesel engines.

IMO, they should've placed this in the Diesel version of the Grandis. Rather than using a 2.0 liter Di-D (developed by Volkswagen Group for Mitsu), maybe they should put this new engine instead.

Nevertheless, this news about their new diesel engines is interesting.

"Hyper Common Rail" sounds like some serious hyper hyperbole hehe

[nugundam93]

is this gonna be on the new triton/strada?

Is this their version of the "crdi" engine? Ba't mukhang mas malakas pa ang torque ng 3.2 did ng gen3 pajero kesa dito sa hyper commonrail?

mitsu is gonna need all the 'Hype'r it can get hehe

[laklak]

Just a question, a bit OT, yung mga Common Rail Diesel ba di na kelangan i calibrate?

Ilalagay din Hyper Common Rail engines sa next gen Adventure at Strada G Wagon.

wow..serious upgrading ng diesel engines ang mitsu ah! pero yung styling pangit pa rin....hehehe they need this engine update to compete with other common rail engines.

[Doc Diesel]

hyper din ang cost to replace since most common rails are disposable....
