Awarded for its technical prowess and deactivation technology, General Motors’ dynamic fuel management is a revolutionary system for internal combustion engines.
Pushing to create a world with zero crashes, zero emissions and zero congestion, General Motors is advancing its lineup of current vehicles while simultaneously investing in electrification, autonomy and services like Maven.
General Motors’ dynamic fuel management technology, built at the Tonawanda Engine facility in New York, is a revolutionary system for internal combustion engines.
This technology allows the engine to turn cylinders off when driving in situations that don’t require full power, like cruising on the freeway. The DFM system’s multiple cylinder-firing patterns are seamlessly mixed to meet the driver’s requested torque while helping to balance fuel economy. Customers are given combinations of performance and efficiency to best fit their driving needs.
“Bronco gave rise to the fun and versatile off-road SUV in 1966, becoming the first enjoyable sport utility vehicle for those who wanted to live, work and play outdoors,” said Jim Farley, Ford chief operating officer. “Like the original, the all-new Bronco family is engineered to take you to epic places, with capability to deliver confidence on any type of terrain.”
Earlier this year, General Motors announced a $22 million investment at its Spring Hill, Tennessee, manufacturing complex to build V-8 DFM engines.
“This investment will enable our Spring Hill team to continue building our award-winning engines enhanced with technology that will improve fuel efficiency and performance for our customers,” said GM Chairman and CEO Mary Barra. “This investment reflects our commitment to vehicles and technologies our customers desire today and in the future.”
