The M271 E18 ML / AL engine is an in-line 4-cylinder petrol internal combustion engine with a displacement of 1796 cm3 that is the same for all modifications. The M271 E18 engine is distinguished by the method of injecting the air-fuel mixture into the cylinders: on the M271 modification, the mixture flows from the nozzles into the intake manifold to the intake valves, on the M271 E18 modification, the fuel is injected directly into the engine combustion chamber.
