The World Gasoline Engine is a family of straight-4 piston engines, based on the Global Engine Alliance design.
Three engines have been produced: a 1.8 L, a 2.0 L, and a 2.4 L. The initial design of the engine block and cylinder head was handled by Hyundai as part of the Global Engine Alliance. The engines feature an aluminum engine block with siamesed cast iron cylinder liners (which do not allow coolant to flow between adjacent liners). By using cylinder liners, the engine's bore can be altered, therefore the displacement as well, just by adding a different set of cylinder liners. The engine also features an aluminum cylinder head with double overhead camshafts and variable valve timing.
1.8
The 1.8L is a dual overhead cam (DOHC) inline 4-cylinder gasoline engine capable of {{cvt|148|hp|kW|0}} and {{cvt|125|lbft|0}} of torque. The engine has displacement of {{cvt|1798|cc|L cuin|1|order=flip}} with a bore of {{cvt|3.38|in|mm}} and a stroke of {{cvt|3.05|in|mm}}.{{cite web |url=http://www.dodge.com/bridge/vehsuite.html?app=vehiclespecs&family=caliber&model=Technical&zipcode=10101&year=2008 |title=Dodge - Specs & Upgrades |access-date=2008-04-17 |publisher=Chrysler LLC}} The compression ratio is 10.5:1.
The 1.8L DOHC inline 4-cylinder engine served as the standard engine in the Dodge Caliber SE and SXT trim for the 2007–2009 model years.
Applications:
- 2007–2009 Dodge Caliber SE and SXT, {{cvt|148|hp|0}} and {{cvt|125|lbft|Nm|0}} torque
2.0
The 2.0L DOHC inline four-cylinder gasoline engine is capable of {{cvt|158|hp|kW|0}} and produces {{cvt|141|lbft|Nm|0}} of torque. The engine has a displacement of {{cvt|1998|cc|L cuin|1|order=flip}} with a bore and a stroke of {{cvt|3.38x3.38|in|mm}}.{{cite web |url=http://www.chrysler.co.uk/sebring/models.html |title=Chrysler Sebring Model |access-date=2008-04-17 |publisher=Chrysler LLC |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20080425104042/http://www.chrysler.co.uk/sebring/models.html |archive-date = 2008-04-25}} The compression ratio of the engine is 10.5:1.
The 2.0 L engine was offered by Dodge in the Dodge Caliber. Outside North America, the 2.0 was the base engine for the 2007 Chrysler Sebring and 2008 Dodge Avenger.
Applications:
- 2007–2012 Dodge Caliber SE and SXT, {{cvt|158|hp|0}} and {{cvt|141|lbft|Nm|0}} torque
- 2007–2017 Jeep Patriot (4×2 models only)
- 2007–2017 Jeep Compass (4×2 models only)
- Dodge Avenger (outside North America)
- Chrysler Sebring (outside North America)
2.4
The 2.4 L, {{cvt|172|hp|kW|0}} engine was used by Dodge in the R/T trim line of the Caliber. The dual overhead cam (DOHC) inline four-cylinder engine had {{cvt|2360|cc|L cuin|1|order=flip}} of displacement with a bore and a stroke of {{cvt|3.46x3.82|in|mm}}.{{cite web |url=http://www.jeep.com/bridge/vehsuite.html?app=vehiclespecs&family=patriot&model=Technical&zipcode=10101&year=2008 |title=Jeep - Specs & Upgrades |access-date=2008-04-16 |publisher=Chrysler LLC}} A {{cvt|285|hp|0}} turbocharged variant of this engine was used in the high-performance SRT-4 version of the Caliber.
Applications:
- 2007–2010 Chrysler Sebring
- 2011–2014 Chrysler 200 / Lancia Flavia
- 2008–2014 Dodge Avenger
- 2007–2011 Dodge Caliber R/T, {{cvt|172|hp|0}} and SRT-4, {{cvt|285|hp|0}}
- 2009–2020 Dodge Journey
- 2011–2016 Fiat Freemont (Brazilian market)
- 2007–2017 Jeep Compass
- 2007–2017 Jeep Patriot
Tigershark
The Tigershark engine family is the name for the next generation of World Gasoline Engines, with work starting on them shortly after Fiat's acquisition of Chrysler. The major differences compared to the first generation are the updated valvetrain and intakes.
=2.0=
The 2.0 L Tigershark DOHC inline 4-cylinder gasoline engine has dual-variable valve timing and produces {{cvt|160|hp|kW|0}} and {{cvt|148|lbft|Nm|0}} of torque.{{cite web |url=http://www.automobilemag.com/am/2013/dodge/dart/specifications.html |title=2013 Dodge Dart Specs |access-date=2012-11-01 |publisher=Automobile Magazine}} It utilizes a bore and stroke of {{cvt|88x82|mm|2}} and a 10.2:1 compression ratio.
