Engine technology

The acronym DTS-Fi stands for Digital Twin Spark Fuel Injection. Like DTS-i (which is the mother technology) the engine has two spark plugs, but, instead of conventionally positioned straight ports, the offset positioning of the ports generate high swirl and turbulence of the air fuel mixture in the combustion chamber. This results in highly efficient combustion that further results in exceptional mileage. Like the mother DTS-i technology, the DTS-Fi technology is a patented technology developed by Bajaj Auto R&D.
