Features of the Xdi270 Engine
High Performance This sophisticated engine cranks out 165ps and maximum torque in virtually all rpm ranges. The third-generation common-rail system (1600-bar injection/32-bit ECU) and Mercedes’ CAN-Bus engine management system ensure optimal handling through real-time torque control.
Leading Fuel Economyy The optimized combustion system provides the highest fuel efficiency.
Quiet Operation SsangYong is first to use a 3rd-generation common rail turbo-diesel engine in this class of vehicle, lowing operation noise to that of a petrol-powered engine.
World-class Reliability Parts from Mercedes-Benz suppliers are used, while durability testing and engine production adhere to the uncompromising Mercedes-Benz standards.
Environmental Compliance The new-concept Xdi270 satisfies the current Euro III emission standards and has satisfied the Euro IV (effective in 2007) in internal tests.
 
Xdi – A high-performance engine with advanced system
1. Sophisticated 3rd-Generation Common-rail System
 
2. High-speed, Multi-layer CAN-bus System
Various sensors inside the vehicle monitor engine operate in real time and optimize combustion conditions to ensure consistent output.
 
3. The Diagnostic Systems Found Only on 3rd-Generation Engines
Two knock sensors:In addition to the primary measures for engine knock prevention, the Minimum Drive Pulse (MDP) is continuously adjusted, enabling the diesel injection engine to “learn” how to operate more quietly the more it is driven.

Fuel temperature sensor: The temperature of the fuel supplied to the common rail is monitored constantly to ensure consistent output and protect the engine.

Booster pressure sensor:  Air volume is measured in real time to maintain optimal combustion and minimize emissions.
 
The Common-rail Direct-injection Engine
Fuel efficiency is maximized through electronic control of the timing, quantity and pressure of fuel directly injected into the combustion chamber.
[Features]
- Combustion control equals or exceeds that for a petrol engine; high fuel compression and injection pressure are maintained.

- Emission reductions are 20% for carbon dioxide, 40% for carbon monoxide, 50% for hydrocarbons and 60% for particulate materials.
- Fuel efficiency is improved 20%, low-speed torque 50%, and power output 25%.
