Mitsubishi 3G engine

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Mitsubishi 3G engine is a range of three cylinder powerplant from Mitsubishi Motors, introduced in the fifth generation of their Mitsubishi Minica kei car. In common with other contemporary engines in the class, it could be specified with many advanced technologies despite its diminutive size, including multi-valve cylinder heads and double overhead camshafts. The top-of-the-line Dangan ZZ variant was also the first kei car to benefit from turbocharging, and in 1989 became the world's first production car to feature five valves per cylinder, ahead of similar developments by Bugatti, Audi and Ferrari.

Originally a 550 cc engine, it was enlarged to 660 cc in 1990 following changes in the class regulations.
