“Cooler air helps the engine run
better under load especially in condi-
tions where engine and transmission
temperatures can rise quickly,” said
Marinkovic. “Running cooler allows
the engine to maintain full power and
vehicle speed for
capable trailering in
even the toughest
conditions.”
The company has
also made a number of
advancements in fuel
efficiency with its
EcoTec 3 gas engine
family. The 4.3-litre
V6, 5.3-litre V8 and
6.2-litre V8 provide
the power and torque
of a large displacement
engine with seamless
switching to four-cyl-
inder mode to save
fuel during light-load
driving.
“So your large
engine acts like a
small engine when
you don’t need the
power,” said Marinkovic. “You don’t
have to give up power to get great
fuel economy.”
