Inkriql Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Since Stellantis launched the new T270 engine, we saw that it was only associated with the AT6 transmission and front-wheel drive. It happened in Compass, and in Toro. Interestingly, for the Renegade facelift, the Trailhawk version offered the combination of the 1.3L turbo with the 9-speed automatic transmission and 4WD. When we consulted brand managers on this issue, they clarified that they were perfectly combinable, but that they were not doing so due to the number of available components. The executives affirmed that we would soon see turbocharged 4x4 variants of the SUV C and the compact pickup, and now from Brazil comes the announcement that FIAT is preparing the Toro 4WD gasoline. Bull 1.3T 4WD According to rumors, the Toro T270 with four-wheel drive will arrive in Brazil in 2023 and only on the highest trim levels, including versions like the Ultra. T270 engine characteristics 1.3L 4 cylinder Direct injection + Turbo hip distribution 175 hp and 270 Nm It is said that the traction system will be the well-known one associated with the 2.0 turbodiesel engine with intelligent distribution, central locking and the so-called 4WD Low that uses the ultra-short 1st (normally it is set to 2nd) as a reducer. The 4x4 version of the Toro would also include traction programs with Auto (Automatic), Sport (Sport), Snow (Snow, recommended for very slippery floors), Sand/Mud (Sand/Mud) modes, in addition to rear differential lock . Does T270 replace TD350? The replacement will not be instantaneous, but globally TD engines are being withdrawn due to costs and difficulties especially related to complying with anti-pollution regulations such as the particulate filter and the addition of Urea. On the higher cost of the turbodiesel engine, we must add that the 2.0 is imported from Italy against the 1.3T that is manufactured in the region. Finally, in pickups turbodiesels are still in vogue for reliability, durability and torque, but in the case of Stellantis it is expected that the brand will add a new one with greater displacement and power that is spoken for use in both Commander and the new flatbed of RAM. Do you find it interesting that the 1.3 turbo engine adds 4WD traction? Explain why and without attacking in the comments so we can have a dialogue .https://noticias.autocosmos.com.ar/2022/10/13/fiat-toro-13-turbo-prepara-la-version-4wd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
