Each cylinder has 2 inlet valves and 2 exhaust valves. The performance of the inlet and exhaust
circuits is increased by the greater width of the ports.
Opening and closing of the valves is controlled directly by 2 camshafts.
The engine has 12 valves and 2 overhead camshafts driven by chain, one for inlet and the other
for exhaust.
The VVT-i system (21) serves to reduce fuel consumption, increase performance and also to
reduce pollutant emissions. Fuller information on the control of the VVT-i system (21) is to be found
in the repair manual.
