JTD<br />

The second generation of MultiJet engines,<br />

a development of <strong>the</strong> Common Rail system,<br />

having made its debut on <strong>the</strong> MiTo.<br />

Service internals of 21,000 miles demonstrate <strong>the</strong><br />

reliability of this class-leading technology.<br />

JTDM-2 M-2<br />

The 1.3 JTDM-2 85 bhp and 1.6 JTDM-2 120 bhp engines use special injectors which, courtesy of a balanced<br />

hydraulic servo valve, control <strong>the</strong> amount of diesel injected into <strong>the</strong> combustion chamber with a high<br />

degree of PRECISION. The result is a more RAPID and FLEXIBLE injection sequence compared to previous<br />

generation power units<br />

SOLUTIONS<br />

ADVANTAGES<br />

Optimising combustion makes it possible to achieve incredible results in terms<br />

of consumption, emissions, acoustics and steering capability.<br />

The MiTo also has ano<strong>the</strong>r device on board for reducing fuel consumption and emissions,<br />

available on all engines:<br />

START&STOP AS STANDARD; a device that turns off <strong>the</strong> engine whenever <strong>the</strong> vehicle is stationary<br />

and idling, <strong>the</strong>n re-starts it automatically. This system can be deactivated at will by <strong>the</strong> driver, but<br />

when active achieves a noticeable reduction in fuel consumption, emissions and noise pollution.<br />

GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR – GSI: works in conjunction with Start&Stop and suggests when to<br />

shift to <strong>the</strong> gear best suited to optimise engine effi ciency and reduce fuel consumption by<br />

illuminating a light on <strong>the</strong> control panel.<br />
