Comme son nom le laisse entendre, un moteur à injection directe d'essence (IDE) est caractérisé par l'injection directe du carburant dans la chambre de combustion. Cette technologie a l'avantage principal de permettre le fonctionnement du moteur avec plus d'air et moins de carburant. Il en résulte une réduction de la consommation de carburant pouvant atteindre 15 % par rapport à celle des moteurs traditionnels. 5, record 1, French, - moteur%20%C3%A0%20injection%20directe%20d%27essence
