TheHyundai Sigma engine is whatHyundai Motor Company called theMitsubishi 6G7 engine when manufactured in South Korea. It is a series ofV6piston engines.[1] The Sigma engine family began life with the simpleV6 name.[2][3] Displacement ranges from 2.5 to 3.5 L (2,497 to 3,497 cc).
TheDOHCG6AV (also called the2.5 D, "D" for DOHC) is the small 2,497 cc (2.5 L; 152.4 cu in) version. Bore is 83.5 mm (3.29 in) and stroke is shared with the 3.0 L (2,972 cc) at 76 mm (2.99 in). Output is 162–173 PS (119–127 kW; 160–171 hp) at 6,000 rpm and 20.8–22.4 kg⋅m (204–220 N⋅m; 150–162 lbf⋅ft) at 4,500 rpm.
TheDOHCG6AT andG6CT (also called the3.0 D, "D" for DOHC) both displace 2,972 cc (3.0 L; 181.4 cu in). They share the 2.5's 76 mm (2.99 in) stroke but use a larger 91.1 mm (3.59 in) bore. Output for the older G6AT is 185–205 PS (136–151 kW; 182–202 hp) at 6,000 rpm and 24.6–27.1 kg⋅m (241–266 N⋅m; 178–196 lbf⋅ft) at 4,000–4,500 rpm, while the G6CT produces 187–196 PS (138–144 kW; 184–193 hp) at 5,500–6,000 rpm and 26.5–27.2 kg⋅m (260–267 N⋅m; 192–197 lbf⋅ft) at 3,500–4,000 rpm.
The olderSOHCG6AT3.0 S produces just 141–164 PS (104–121 kW; 139–162 hp) at 5,000 rpm and 22.9–24.5 kg⋅m (225–240 N⋅m; 166–177 lbf⋅ft) at 2,500–3,000 rpm.
TheL6AT displace 2,972 cc (3.0 L; 181.4 cu in). They share the 2.5's 76 mm (2.99 in) stroke but use a larger 91.1 mm (3.59 in) bore. Output is 135 PS (99 kW; 133 hp) at 4,500 rpm and 23–24 kg⋅m (226–235 N⋅m; 166–174 lbf⋅ft) at 2,500 rpm.
TheG6AU andG6CU (both also called the3.5 D) are the large 3,497 cc (3.5 L; 213.4 cu in) versions of the Sigma engine. Bore and stroke are both larger at 93 mm × 85.8 mm (3.66 in × 3.38 in), respectively. Output is 203–225 PS (149–165 kW; 200–222 hp) at 5,500 rpm and 29.6–31.8 kg⋅m (290–312 N⋅m; 214–230 lbf⋅ft) at 4,000 rpm for the older G6AU and 195–220 PS (143–162 kW; 192–217 hp) at 5,500–6,000 rpm and 30–32 kg⋅m (294–314 N⋅m; 217–231 lbf⋅ft) at 3,500 rpm for the newer G6CU.
The 3.5 D has a cast iron engine block and aluminum DOHC cylinder heads. It usesMulti-port fuel injection, has4 valves per cylinder, and featuresforged steelconnecting rods. It is designed to run on "regular" unleaded gasoline rather than the premium fuel used in many other high-output V6 engines.
TheUS-market version produces 197 PS (145 kW; 194 hp) at 5,500 rpm with 30.3 kg⋅m (297 N⋅m; 219 lbf⋅ft) of torque at 3,500 rpm. It was introduced with theKia Sedonaminivan in 2001.
