Skoda Begins Production Of New 1.0-Litre TSI Engine
Skoda's new three-cylinder turbo petrol engine belongs to the EA 211 family of engines, which the company builds in four displacement volumes.
Skoda Auto, the Czech automobile manufacturer, has begun production of the new 1.0-litre TSI engine at its Mladá Boleslav engine plant.
The new three-cylinder turbo petrol powertrain belongs to the EA 211 family of engines, which the company builds in four displacement volumes. The production of the EA 211 model series started back in 2012.
The EA 211 family of powertrains is characterised by an aluminium cylinder block and twin overhead camshafts which activate four valves per cylinder, while the exhaust manifold is integrated into the cylinder head.
Skoda said that "the new 1.0 TSI once again extends the range of the engine family. The modern three-cylinder has weight-optimized, forged connecting rods and aluminium pistons. It does not require a balance shaft and features excellent running smoothness."
"Compared to comparatively powerful four-cylinder engines, it is more compact, lighter and generates less friction, and thus operates much more efficiently."
At the same time, Skoda Auto has produced its 13 millionth engine at the same plant. This milestone reflects the company's 118 years of engineering skill and the performance of their team, said Skoda in a press release.
Michael Oeljeklaus, Skoda Board Member for Production and Logistics said "Our headquarters is one of the longest-established sites in the automotive industry for the construction and development of powertrains. With the production launch of the TSI three-cylinder EA 211 series, we are adding another chapter to this success story."
