Abstract
This paper gives the background for the development of the five-cylinder diesel engine, introduced as a passenger car first.
It discusses the main design features of this engine, its combustion and fuel injection system, and the associated aspects of balancing. Performance, fuel economy and exhaust emissions of the engine result in very interesting vehicle features.
