Volkswagen EA827 engine

The EA827 family of petrol engines was introduced in 1972 by Audi in the B1-series Audi 80, and went on to power many Volkswagen Group models. This is a very robust water-cooled engine configuration for four- up to eight- cylinders, and is still in production.

The EA827 is also the base for diesel engines, which share its 88-millimetre (3.46 in) cylinder spacing with the spark ignition petrol engines.

A 1,715 cc engine, originally used in the German Volkswagen Iltis, was also used mainly in the US market Scirrocos, Rabbits and Jettas but also in the Audi 4000 B2. It was built in Volkswagen of America's plant in New Stanton, Pennsylvania. This engine was also used in the Dodge Omni/Plymouth Horizon family of cars from 1978 until 1983. Power ranged from 63 to 75 hp (47 to 56 kW) in the Chrysler applications.
