The Mitsubishi 4J1 engine is a range of all-alloy straight-4 engines. The main goal was declared as reduction on-road CO2 emission on new vehicles.[1] According to cars specifications fuel consumption also was improved. Comparing to previous engine series (4B1) valvetrain configuration was changed from DOHC to SOHC, Variable valve lift (VVL) technology added. The engine usually is paired with the ecological features like Start-Stop system and EGR. That engine mostly is appearing in the cars Lancer X, ASX, Outlander on several markets across Japan, Europe and Latin America.

4J10

Specifications

Engine typeInline 4-cylinder SOHC 16v, MIVEC
Displacement1798cc
Bore x StrokeNaNmm
Compression ratio 10.7:1
Fuel systemECI multiple
Peak power1020NaN0 at 6000 rpm(jin-net)
Peak torque1720NaN017.9kgm at 4200 rpm (jin-net)

Applications

Characteristics

The new 4J10 MIVEC engine features the use of a next-generation MIVEC system that continuously regulates intake valve lift, opening duration and timing. The new MIVEC system together with improved combustion stability and a reduction in piston friction provide an improvement in fuel economy without any loss in engine performance (output and torque) over the 4B10 MIVEC engine (1.8-liter, inline-4, 16-valve DOHC).

4J11

Specifications

Engine typeInline 4-cylinder SOHC 16v, MIVEC
Displacement1998cc
Bore x StrokeNaNmm
Compression ratio 10.5:1
Fuel systemElectronically controlled MPI
Peak power1100NaN0 at 6000 rpm
Peak torque1950NaN0 at 4100-4200 rpm

Applications

Characteristics

The 4J11 engine is the newly developed engine further improving the fuel economy. This engine can keep the same output performance as the conventional 4B11 engine by using the new MIVEC system.

4J12

Specifications

Engine typeInline 4-cylinder SOHC 16v, MIVEC
Displacement2360cc
Bore x StrokeNaNmm
Compression ratio 10.5:1
Fuel systemElectronically controlled MPI
Peak power1240NaN0 at 6000 rpm(eec-net 歐盟淨值)
Peak torque2200NaN0 at 4200 rpm(eec-net 歐盟精緻) (10ps net=10.7ps gross;10NM NET =10.7NM GROSS)

Applications

Characteristics

"Eco friendly" replacement for 4B12.
