# Hyundai U engine

The Hyundai U engine is a series of three or four-cylinder diesel engines made for automotive applications by the Hyundai Kia Automotive Group. The U series of engines includes the smallest automotive diesel engines produced by Hyundai.

## 1.1 L (D3FA)

The 1.1 L (1,120 cc) U diesel engine is a 3-cylinder version of the 1.5L U series unit and is made with cast iron block and aluminum cylinder head with chain driven DOHC with 4 valves per cylinder, Delphi common rail direct injection (CRDi), variable geometry turbocharger (VGT) and intake air swirl control. Bore and Stroke are 75 mm × 84.5 mm (2.95 in × 3.33 in). It creates 71–75 PS (52–55 kW; 70–74 hp) at 4,000 rpm and 15.6–18.3 kg⋅m (153–179 N⋅m; 113–132 lbf⋅ft) of torque between 1,750 and 2,500 rpm.
It is one of Hyundai's most efficient engines with a fuel consumption of 4.2 L/100 km (67 mpg$_{‑imp}$; 56 mpg$_{‑US}$), and emits 112 g/km of CO$_2$. The engine also incorporates a 1½ engine order balance shaft mounted under the crankshaft driven by helical gears to manage engine vibration.
