Kia has constructed its own Gasoline Direct Injection engine based on the new Theta II family of units that will power the next generation of Kia vehicles.

GDI lowers CO2 emissions while raising power and improving fuel economy and this new unit has been developed with Hyundai. The first engine will be a 2.4-litre four cylinder GDI engine and is expected to appear in Kia models (in the UK) by 2011.
