Mitsubishi 4B11T specs: 2.0L (122 ci) 4-cylinder, 86 x 86 mm (3.3858 x 3.3858 in) bore and stroke, 9:1 compression. Rated 237-303 hp, 2008–2015.
The Mitsubishi 4B11T is exactly square — 3.3858" bore and 3.3858" stroke are the same — which splits the difference between a high-revving layout and a torque layout. The 3.3858" stroke does not reach 4,000 ft/min of mean piston speed until about 7,100 RPM, so piston speed is not what limits this engine's revs — valvetrain and breathing are. Each of the 4 cylinders displaces 30.5 ci (500 cc).
9:1 on aluminum heads is low by modern standards and generally happy on regular pump fuel.
It is one of 4 engines in the Global Engine family, the smallest at 122 ci. 16 factory variants share these dimensions, rated from 237 to 303 hp across 2008–2015.
