Mitsubishi 8A engine
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Mitsubishi 8A engine is a range of powerplants produced by Mitsubishi Motors since 1999. The only variant to date is the 8A80, a 4.5 L DOHC V8 with gasoline direct injection (GDi) technology. Financial pressures forced the company to quickly discontinue sales of the Proudia and Dignity, the only vehicles in its range to which it was fitted, after only fifteen months.
However, the two vehicles were developed in partnership with the Hyundai Motor Company of South Korea, with whom Mitsubishi has had a longstanding relationship. Their version, the Hyundai Equus has proven more successful, and this has been the sole application of the powerplant since 2001.
