DDiS are turbocharged diesel engines that use a common rail -injection system and used in Suzuki models. They have been built since 2003. The engines are known for reliability, high performance and low fuel consumption. Today they are available for most Suzuki models.
Features of DDiS engines
These are versions of popular engines from General Motors, Groupe PSA (now Stellantis) and Groupe Renault. They have a 4-cylinder cast iron or aluminum engine block. The cylinder head is made of aluminum. They work with a common rail fuel supply system, which comes from Delphi, Bosch or Siemens. A chain or belt is used to drive the valve train.
