"Our long-standing expertise in the field of advanced
turbocharging technologies for combustion and hybrid propulsion
systems enables BorgWarner to supply Jaguar Land Rover the leading
R2S turbocharging system to help them achieve fuel efficiency and
performance targets for their new 2.0-liter diesel engine," said
Frédéric Lissalde, President and General Manager, BorgWarner Turbo
Systems. "We are pleased to expand our successful business
relationship with Jaguar Land Rover by working together closely and
providing a wide range of our turbocharging technologies for
several other engines from Jaguar Land Rover to improve the
fun-to-drive experience for their customers even more."
BorgWarner's R2S turbocharging solution consists of two
series-connected turbochargers of different sizes to deliver high
boost pressures and smooth power over the entire engine speed
range. One turbocharger features the company's latest variable
turbine geometry (VTG) technology for the high-pressure stage
combined with a larger B03 water-cooled turbocharger optimized for
low-pressure exhaust gas recirculation. Controlled by an electric
actuator, BorgWarner's VTG turbocharger responds quickly at low
engine speeds, resulting in a rapid rise in boost pressure for
nearly instant acceleration. As engine speed increases, a bypass
gradually redirects the exhaust gas flow towards the larger,
low-pressure turbocharger until it takes over the workload
completely to maintain fluid power delivery and provide excellent
efficiency. BorgWarner's R2S turbocharging technology allows quick
adaptation to changes in the engine's operating conditions, thereby
facilitating fast response times and contributing to significantly
reduced emissions.
