section are made of aluminum.

• Compliance with future

exhaust-emission regulations.

• The valve covers are die-cast magnesium

coated with a thin synthetic material to

prevent corrosion.

• Reduction of fuel consumption.

• Increase in torque and power.

• The cylinder block is aluminum.

• Improvement of comfort and

convenience.

• Reduction of engine weight.

• Increased use of shared components.
