Abstract
This paper describes the new VK56VD engine, which was developed in response to
growing demand for cleaner automobiles, better fuel economy, and improved engine
performance. A 5.6 L V8 engine, the VK56VD will go into the new Infiniti M56
premium sport luxury sedan. To boost power and efficiency and lessen its
environmental impact, this engine will utilize key technologies such as
Continuous Variable Valve Event and Lift (VVEL) and Direct Injection Gasoline
(DIG).
Details of the VK56VD are presented here along with highlights of the applied
technologies and the development means.
