Mitsubishi will bid farewell to the VAG 2.0 TDI engines for Lancer and Grandis

Discussed in the Dutch daily Auto Telegraaf that Mitsubishi will remove your offer the 2.0 TDI with 140 HP, home VW still uses a pump – injector. His replacement will be the 1.8 DI-D which already uses the ASX Crossover, 150 HP and 300 NM of torque.

Currently both the compact / sedan Lancer as the MPV Grandis still resort to this engine, which quite frankly, is already outdated. At the end of 2012 received this engine (depending on the source) with a version “nerfed” 115 HP and 150 HP with another. Assumes consumption better than the 2.0DI-D now.

The idea is totally logical. Mitsubishi Lancer GTR is normal and resorted to an engine made ​​under license, rather than develop a propellant that only makes sense in the European market. However, the absence of official confirmation, we give this rumor consideration.
