List of Toyota engines

This is a list of engines developed, independently or with other car companies, by Toyota.

Engine codes

Toyota has produced a wide variety of automobile engines, including inline-four and V6 engines. The company follows a simple naming system for their modern engines:

1. The first numeric characters specify the engine block's generation
2. The next one or two letters specify the engine family
3. The suffix (separated by a dash) specifies the features of the engine:

Note: Other manufacturers may modify the engine after it has left the Toyota factory but the engine still keeps the original Toyota designation. For example, Lotus added a supercharger to the 2ZZ-GE in some versions of the Lotus Elise and Exige but it is still labelled 2ZZ-GE, not 2ZZ-GZE.

For Example

• 2NR-FE

2NR – 2nd generation engine in the NR engine family
F – Economy narrow-angle DOHC
E – Electronic fuel injection

• 1ND-TV

1ND – 1st Generation Engine In The ND Engine Family
T – Turbocharged
V – D-4D common rail direct injection (diesel)

The use of "G" to denote twin cam engines was decided on in 1971, with the renaming of the 10R into 8R-G. Before, twin cams had received new numerical codes.^[1]

• Note: Toyota, in 1987, began assigning dual letter engine codes to some of the "engine family" categories in some engine lines, particularly six cylinder models. This can create potential confusion. E.g. 1MZ-FE – This is not a supercharged, narrow angle, fuel injected M-series engine, but a narrow angle, fuel injected MZ-series engine. Confusion is easiest to avoid when using the dash to separate between the engine series and its own characteristics: for instance, 1MZ-FE rather than 1M-ZFE.

Diesel

Starting in 1957 until 1988, Toyota established a separate dealership in Japan dedicated to cars and trucks installed with diesel engines, called Toyota Diesel Store. When the dealership was disbanded, diesel products are now available at all locations, with commercial products exclusive to Toyota Store and Toyopet Store locations.
