JTD 1.3 is the popular choice of many car manufacturers in Europe and we are witnessing the same trend in India.

An informative article about Fiat's new engines:

Mr Ram hyundai are you on pay for spreading false information about Multijet engines ?

I request to the Moderators to please take care of such spamming threads.

Before creating such threads, it would make a lot of sense if a search on Google is done!

Ferro, Ram works for a MUL dealership. Earlier I believe he was with a Hyundai dealership, hence the name.

Why do you call this a spamming thread? I found it to be an engaging discusssion.

I don't care where he works but without proper evidence he claims to have found out the truth about Multijet or DDiS engines isn't that spamming ?

. There's been a lot of noise about Swift-D doing well solely because of the JTD engine from Fiat. Hence, a discussion about the engine's origins is definitely welcome. All of us admire Fiat Research's contributions to this outstanding engine but the fact remains that ownership of the engine platform is split 50-50 between Fiat and GM.

Lets stay calm. Its easy to get confused with this sort of issue (multijet, unijet, bosch etc.,). Please give benefit of doubt to Ram.

By the way, Isn't JTD different from MJD ?

No. Multijet is the name for the 2nd gen JTDs.. also represented by JTD subscripted with an M.

I thought JTD is unijet. Hence multi in the second generation engines.

Really? I never heard these stories? How do you expect Fiat to supply to MSIL when it was not even manufacturing it in India when Swift D was released? Was MSIL importing?

There is more to diesel engines than just the common rail ;-)

Does it really matter?

I think you should get your facts right before posting such topics. A good place to start is here:
GM Media Online

Let me pick this apart . Of course, I'm no expert, do correct me if I'm wrong. That is , after all, the point of this discussion

True . I believe bosch owns the IP for Common rail diesels, so it would be appropriate. not just these companies, any Common rail diesel, Tata's Dicor also licenses it from bosch

swift ddis engine is never a fiat engine
fiat mjd engine wont be manufactured by msil

Cant quite make that out. According to this article

the Swift diesel, meanwhile, would roll out in November this year with a 1.3 JTD engine from Fiat which it will manufacture under license from the latter

the facts are that the the design is a GM/Fiat design which maruti has licensed. On the other hand , maruti doesnt claim it to be a fiat engine(obviously :P) , and advertises its own DDiS

It seems like you want to say that the engine is not a Fiat, but a Bosch engine while actually, it is BOTH

If we extend that argument further, ALMOST everything else in the Auto industry is 50-50 ownership !! GM had a stake in Suzuki as well.. So the credit for Suzuki SX4 should go to Suzuki, Fiat, GM and a hundred other companies standing in line.
