The engine is made from aluminium alloy, and the cylinder walls are given iron coating that helps reduce friction. The piston rings are now optimised, and the pistons are coated with Gafal to endure the crank drive stress that’s created due to extra power and torque. Further, a viscous damper on the crankshaft help minimises the torsional vibration, thus enhancing engine smoothness.
