VARIABLE VALVE TIMING (VVT) Standard in both Terrain engines, this technology gives you the power of a high-performance engine with the low- speed response you need for situations such as trailering or climbing steep inclines. VVT constantly monitors and changes how the valves open and close to give you near-peak levels of torque across the entire range of engine speeds.
DIRECT INJECTION For precise fuel distribution and fast, efficient combustion, both Terrain engines feature direct injection technology. Simply put, this system moves the fuel closer to the point where it ignites inside the engine—in the combustion chamber. By injecting fuel at over 2000 psi, the air and fuel mix more completely. This helps the charge burn fast for crisp throttle response and lean for efficiency at cruise speeds. The result: the 2.4L I-4 Terrain offers an unsurpassed 32 hwy mpg, the best standard highway fuel economy in its class.1 This capability could also give you a cruising range of up to 600 highway miles on a single fill-up.
FUEL-SAVING MODE To help you save fuel, the 2.4L I-4 engine has an Eco- Mode button that, when pressed, delivers slightly better fuel economy by holding gears longer, with only a slight decrease in acceleration.
E85 FLEXFUEL CAPABILITY To give you more choices at the pump, both Terrain engines are capable of using E85 ethanol fuel. This advanced biofuel is a mixture of 85 percent ethanol, a mostly renewable fuel that helps to reduce the need for imported oil, and 15 percent unleaded regular gasoline.
