From Chevrolet.com:
The all-new 2014 Chevrolet Cruze Clean Turbo Diesel’s advanced 2.0L engine uses a variable-swirl intake system to create a “perfect storm” of air and fuel that helps enhance performance while reducing emissions.
In Cruze’s variable-swirl intake manifold, each cylinder has two separate intake ports, with one of them controlled by a valve. During variable swirl, each throttle valve varies how much it opens to create mixture-motion of air and fuel within each cylinder. General Motors’ Powertrain team devoted countless hours to calibrating the actuator to precisely open and close the valves for optimal performance.
As a result of this and other advanced powertrain technologies, Cruze’s clean diesel engine offers a segment-leading EPA-estimated 46 mpg highway and range of more than 700 miles per tank – better than any non-hybrid or gasoline-powered passenger car vehicle in America.
