“The engine enjoys Euro4 emission standards and European On Board Diagnostics (EOBD). Its Euro4 standards can be promoted to Euro5.”
TC7 is of national EF class which is co-designed by Iran Khodro Power Train (IPCO) and Germany’s FEV in a joint project.
EF engines have been designed initially based on compressed natural gas, but it is capable of working with gasoline as well.
