The Toyota KR engine family is a straight-3 piston engine series, designed by Daihatsu, which
is a subsidiary of Toyota. The 1KR series uses aluminium engine blocks and chain driven
DOHC cylinder heads. It uses multi-point fuel injection, and has 4 valves per cylinder with VVT-i
whilst some of the series do not have it.The engine is also exceptionally light with a 69 kg
weight with all ancillaries. This is due to the nature of the applications and weight of city cars.

1KR-FEEdit

1KR-FE used in Daihatsu Sirion, Toyota Aygo, Citron C1 and Peugeot 107
The 1KR-FE is a 1.0 L (996 cc) version built in Japan and Poland. Bore is 71 mm and stroke is
84 mm, with a compression ratio of 10.5:1. Output is 67 PS (49 kW) at 6000 rpm with 91 Nm
(67 lbft) of torque at 4800 rpm or 71 PS (52 kW) at 6000 rpm with 94 Nm (69 lbft) of torque at
3600 rpm. When originally on sale it met European emission standard EU4 requirements and
had CO2 levels of 109 g/km, but current applications meet European emission standard EU5
and can have CO2 levels as low as 99 g/km.[1] This engine has been given the 2007, 2008, 2009
and 2010[2] International Engine of the Year awards in the sub-1.0 liter category.
The engine was also adopted to meet European emission standard EU6 and can have CO2
levels as low as 88/89 g/km in Toyota Aygo or Citroen C1/Peugeot 108 since 2014 in NEDC.
Applications:
Toyota Passo/Daihatsu Boon
Toyota Aygo/Citron C1/Peugeot 107 (2005-2014)
Toyota Vitz/Yaris (2005)
Toyota Belta (2006-2012)
Toyota iQ
Daihatsu Cuore L276 (09.2007-)
Daihatsu Sirion M300
Subaru Justy (2008-)
Daihatsu Ayla/Toyota Agya/Wigo (2013-)
Toyota Aygo/Citron C1/Peugeot 108 (2014-)
Toyota Tank/Toyota Roomy/Daihatsu Thor (2016-)
1KR-DEEdit

The 1KR-DE is the non-VVT-i variant of the 1KR engine. It produces less power and torque
than 1KR-FE. Output is 65 PS (48 kW) at 6000rpm and 85 Nm (63 lbft) of t orque at 3600rpm.
Bore is 71 mm and stroke is 84 mm, while the engine displacement is 1.0 L (998 cc).[3][4]
The 1KR-DE was specially designed for the Indonesian L CGC (Low Cost Green Car) market to
reduce cost. The engine cylinder head cover is made from plastic-resin instead of aluminium to
save 10 kg of weight. The exhaust manifold is integrated to the cylinder head together with the
catalytic converter and oxygen sensor to save even more weight.[5]
Applications:
Toyota Agya/Daihatsu Ayla (2012-)
Daihatsu Hi-Max / Hijet tenth generation (2016-)[6]
1KR-DE2Edit

The 1KR-DE2 is the more powerful variant of the 1KR-DE engine which is redesigned by
Perodua. It produces 66 PS (49 kW) at 6000rpm and 90 Nm (66 lbft) of torque at 3600rpm.
Like the 1KR-DE, bore and stroke are at 71mm and 84mm respectively, and e ngine
displacement remains at (998 cc)[7][8] The 1KR-DE2 achieves Euro IV emission standard and it is
very fuel efficient due to the ECO Mode, but still lacks VVT-i when compared to 1KR-FE. The
compression ratio for this engine is 11:1.[9]
Application:
Perodua Axia (2014-)
1KR-VEEdit
The "1KR-VE" is a more powerful variant made by Perodua specifically improved version from
the 1KR-DE2 which is made for the newest edition in the Perodua family. It was specifically
made for the 1.0cc variant for Perodua's first solely in-house manufactured car which is the
Perodua Bezza. It is a modified and refined version of the 1KR-DE engine from the Perodua
Axia. The new 1KR-VE engine produces 67 hp at 6,000 rpm and 91 Nm at 4,400 rpm, offering a
mild 1 hp and 1 Nm increase over the Axia's 1KR-DE2 plant. Perodua claims ECE fuel
consumption figures of 22.8 km/l for the manual variant and 21.3 km/l with the automatic, both
exhibiting a 1.2 km/l improvement over the old 1KR-DE2. The new 1KR-VE engine now features
variable-valve timing with intelligence (VVT-i) on the intake valves. Several minor changes and
refinements were also introduced for increased fuel efficiency and more linear power delivery.
Notable changes include a higher 11.5:1 compression ratio, a high-tumble intake port, a longer
intake manifold, micro fuel spray injection and low-friction valve lifters.
Application:
Daihatsu Sigra (Non ECO Mode) (2016-)
Perodua Bezza (2016-)
Perodua Axia (2017-)
