SÃO PAULO, Sept. 23, 2020
/PRNewswire/ -- BorgWarner has expanded the supply of its
compact B01 turbocharger by equipping the newly launched Volkswagen
Nivus crossover. With an EA211 1.0-liter 200 TSI engine, the
vehicle features first-of-its-kind turbo technology for the
Brazilian market, offering a desired combination of better
performance, improved energy efficiency and reduced fuel
consumption.
"The use of boosting technology helps customers meet emissions
requirements thanks to the boost in efficiency that our technology
delivers. With a market demand for reduction in fuel consumption,
we are happy to supply a solution that allows for savings to the
end customer, along with enhanced engine performance," says
Joe Fadool, President and General
Manager, BorgWarner Emissions, Thermal and Turbo Systems.
The B01 turbocharger helps reduce vehicle emissions through the
use of advanced materials and technologies that meet the engine's
needs. Likewise, it is capable of withstanding exhaust temperatures
of up to 1,050 degrees Celsius. Its construction and operation also
have a milled compressor rotor, with an optimized bearing system
and a relief valve controlled by an electric actuator, resulting in
less noise during operation. Another advantage is its compact
design, which takes into account the construction of engines with
low displacement, without compromising performance. Overall, the
Nivus' engine boasts 126 horsepower (128 PS) and 147 lb-ft
(200Nm) of torque, delivering a fast acceleration response and a
unique and pleasurable driving experience.
