GM Small Gasoline Engine

Automotive Engines

The GM Small Gasoline Engine, or SGE, is a family of small inline three- and four-cylinder gasoline engines from 1.0 to 1.5 litres, developed by Opel, SAIC, MG Motor, Shanghai GM and the Pan-Asia Technical Automotive Center. The family was designed to improve fuel economy and cut noise and emissions, using almost entirely aluminum construction, gasoline direct injection, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries turbochargers on some versions, and a modular set of parts that can be matched to a given application. The three-cylinder versions carry a balance shaft built into the oil pump, and General Motors states that a ready-to-install engine weighs 98 kilograms. The engines debuted in the 2014 Opel Adam and were first built in Szentgotthárd in Hungary, and later in South Korea, Mexico, the United States and China. By 2018 the family had replaced the S-TEC, Family 0 and Family 1 engines.
