Get To Know Direct Injection, The New Technology Used By Chevrolet That Is Changing The Automotive Industry (For The Better!)
Chevrolet is preparing a major innovation for its most popular models: Onix, Onix Plus, Tracker, and Montana will receive versions with direct injection in their engines starting in 2025. This change aims to meet the requirements of Proconve L8, which seeks to reduce emissions and improve vehicle efficiency, according to the website Tudo Celular.
Fuel direct injection is a technology that injects fuel directly into the combustion chamber, which provides a more efficient and complete combustion. This results in a reduction in emissions, as well as an increase in power and a decrease in fuel consumption.
When the current model of the Onix was launched in 2019, many were surprised to find that it did not feature direct injection technology in its 1.0 turbo three-cylinder engine. Chevrolet justified this choice by the lower maintenance cost of indirect injection at the time.
