List of Toyota engines

Engine codes

Toyota Motor Corporation has produced a wide variety of automobile engines. The company follows a simple naming system for their modern engines:

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

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.
