Details on the 1.33L engine

[JnC]

An interesting article in the link below, explaining the merits of this engine vs. the 1.4L predecessor. One has to wonder for the states whether or not the 1.33L would be a better choice than the Yaris 1.5L engine that is continually rumored for the states. From a packaging standpoint, the iQ has been designed with the 1.33L engine in mind, along with a relocated differential. I'm not certain the current 1.5L would even fit into the iQ. Hopefully we'll know something definitive soon.

This all sounds good, but I want stats: how does it compare to the 1.0 and 1.4 diesel in terms of power, efficiency and price? And what about a stop'n'start on a diesel?

BTW. The 1.5 Yaris engine is an inefficient relic IMHO. A big, heavy, noisy gas guzzler that makes the Yaris nose heavy. The added power compared to the diesel can be neutralized by fitting it with a slushbox.

Google is your friend. Here are some numbers for the 1.33 & the old 1.4 gasser. No info on price from this source.

From Green Car Congress:
Engine                Power/Torque            Combined Cycle             CO2
1.33L-VVT-i:           100/101                         5.8                      135         
1.4L VVT-i:                96/97                         6.9                      163       

And the data you posted:
1.0L-VVT-i 5p             68/??                           4.3                      99
1.0L-VVT-i CVT           68/??                           4.7                     110
1.4L-D4D 6 speed        90/??                          4.0                     104

Yes. Google is my friend, but those 1.3l numbers are for the Auris. As you can see in one of the threads where I posted the numbers, you can't simply multiply and hope for the best (I did this for the diesel and was 20% off)

or even LS7. With the exciting news about the new 600hp CTS super V, it sounds like that could be a the supervette engine. What do you think> Is that just some amazing new cadillac engine, C6-R, or tweaked LS7. Anyone have a thought about what engine is in both the CTS super V and Supervette?
