The in-line 4-cylinder DOHC
engine has a
capacity of 1834cc and is managed by a
microprocessor, which also controls the
multipoint injection system. Operating on a
compression ratio of 10.5:1, the engine puts
out 103kW of maximum power at 6,000rpm
and 164Nm of maximum torque at 6,000rpm
(99kW at 6,500rpm and 162Nm at 5,500rpm
for the UK version due to the different
emissions standards). This is enough to
generate sufficient output, enabling the
SATRIA GTi to reach a top speed of 210km/h
and to sprint from standstill to 100km/h in a
mere 7.8 seconds.
The manual transmission
of the SATRIA GTi
offers 5 forward speeds (fully-synchronised)
and one reverse gear. Gear changes are fast
and slick, thanks to the short throws, precise
gates and positive clutch action.
Lotus Engineering of Norwich,
England,
worked hand-in-hand with PROTON R&D for
the task of fine-tuning the suspension system
of the SATRIA GTi to produce better Road &
Handling, and incorporating foam fillers in
strategic areas of the bodyshell to reduce
NVH. Their success is reflected in the car's
superior performance in these areas.
The SATRIA GTi is independently sprung on
all four wheels, the suspension comprising a
McPherson strut arrangement in the front and
a multilink system at the rear; both with coil
springs, dampers and a stabiliser bar. The
suspension design conceived by the PROTON
R&D and Lotus Engineering collaboration
effectively maximises the potential of the
compact class. Carefully calculated reductions
or increases in the values of spring/damper
rates, size and diameters of the suspension
components, as well as the adoption of alloy
wheels and low profile tyres have raised the
on-road performance of the SATRIA GTi to new
heights.
The SATRIA GTi's brake system provides
sure, safe braking. The front wheels are served
by 14-inch ventilated discs and rear wheels by
solid discs of similar size, with a large servo
proving power assistance. ABS (Anti-Lock
Braking System), never before offered in the
SATRIA, is now standard in the GTi.
Acknowledged as one of the most important
inventions in the automotive field, ABS
prevents the wheels from locking up during
hard braking in slippery conditions, thus
preventing the car from skidding out of control.
With ABS, the driver also retains steering
wheel action and is able to steer himself out of
trouble.
New road wheels are fitted to the SATRIA GTi,
comprising 16-inch alloy rims and low profile
45-series radial Michelin tyres. These new
wheels are an integral part of the suspension
fine-tuning exercise and contribute towards the
car's handling and ride prowess.
