An in–line 6, 3.0–liter DOHC engine,
adopting ACIS* and dual exhaust man-
ifold, offering high–performance and
low fuel consumption at high level.
3.0 L 2JZ–GTE 239 kW @ 5600 rpm
(320 HP @ 5600 rpm) 427 N⋅m @ 4000 rpm (315 ft⋅lbf @ 4000 rpm)
A turbocharged in–line 6, 3.0–liter
DOHC engine with a charge air cooler
[intercooler], featuring high response
and power output.
*ACIS: An Acoustic Control Induction System, equivalent to the Intake Air Control System used in the 7M–GE engine
of the previous model.
2JZ–GTE ENGINE
The 2JZ–GTE is newly developed turbocharged in–line 6, 3.0–liter, 24–valve DOHC engine with a charge air
cooler [intercooler]. Along with the two–way twin turbocharger system, this engine features two compact
turbines, and a large–capacity, air–cooled charge air cooler which improves turbo response, and provides high
engine response and performance.
The two–way twin turbocharger system uses two small turbochargers numbered 1 and 2, and their operation is
controlled by the ECM* [engine ECU] in accordance with the driving condition. This system applies boost from
the No. 1 turbocharger to improve turbo response during a low–speed operation, and from both the No. 1 and No.
2 turbochargers to provide high power output during a high–speed operation.
