- 135CC DTS-Si engine: The 135CC DTS-Si engine provides high performance and greater fuel efficiency. The DTS-Si technology employs microprocessor that measures different speeds and loads on the engine and responds accordingly by altering the ignition timing. The DTS-Si technology also utilizes two spark plugs instead of one for creating efficient and faster combustion compared to conventional 4 storke engines. In addition, the offset positioning of inlet and outlet ports, which is also known as swirl induction, creates turbulence in the air-fuel mixture inside the engine thus further enhancing performance and fuel efficiency.
