However, when the turbocharged 2.7L I4 е…ѓB gasoline engine makes almost as much torque ( 430 pound-feet) as the flagship atmospheric 6.2L V8 L87 gasoline engine (460 pound-feet), the continued development of the naturally-breathing eight could be seen as a questionable move. GM Turbocharged Six-Cylinder Engines RPO CodeДЄnother option currently under consideration is the continued development of GMвЂ™s Small Block V8 range. A few examples of this engine configuration from past GM vehicles include the 3.0L LGW, as found in the Cadillac CT6, and the 3.6L LF3, as found in the Cadillac CTS V-Sport and XTS V-Sport. A few modern examples include the 3.0L LGY, as equipped with the Cadillac CT5 and Cadillac CT5-V, as well as the 3.6L LF4, as equipped by the Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing and (previously) the Cadillac ATS-V. GMвЂ™s engine lineup, both past and present, already includes several twin-turbocharged V6 engines. Meanwhile, the Ford EcoBoost 3.5L engine is also found in the Ford Expedition, Ford Transit, and Lincoln Navigator. To note, the Ford EcoBoost 2.7L engine is also found in the Ford Edge ST and Lincoln Nautilus, while the EcoBoost 3.0L V6 is also found in the Ford Explorer ST and Lincoln Aviator. A few examples would include Ford with its range of EcoBoost engines, as equipped in the F-150, Bronco, and Bronco Raptor, Stellantis (Ram) with its Hurricane engines, as equipped by the Wagoneer, and Toyota with its i-Force engine, as equipped by the Tundra.ДЇord, Stellantis, Toyota Turbocharged Six-Cylinder Engines Manufacturer ItвЂ™s worth noting that the 2.7L I4 е…ѓB, along with the 3.0L I6 LM2 turbodiesel Duramax, form the foundational elements of GMвЂ™s CSS.ДЄt present, several of GMвЂ™s rivals have made the switch from big-displacement V8 gasoline engines to boosted six-cylinder units.

The new engine would follow GMвЂ™s Cylinder Set Strategy (CSS), which seeks to optimize engine development and production via economies of scale, although it bears mentioning that the The GeneralвЂ™s CSS has been scaled down considerably since GMвЂ™s pivot towards all-electric vehicles and AV technology. If GM does move ahead with the development of a new twin-turbo six for its trucks and SUVs, the powerplant would be similar to the turbocharged 2.7L I4 е…ѓB gasoline engine currently in use in various GM vehicles. Although the decision to develop such an engine is far from finalized, such a configuration is currently on the table for future GM vehicle powertrains. General Motors is currently considering developing a new twin-turbocharged six-cylinder gasoline engine for its pickup trucks and SUVs.
