Overview

1. Forced Induction Turbocharging & Extreme Torque 

Engineered to eradicate altitude-induced power loss, the ZT-1480CC incorporates an advanced Turbocharged induction system. It unleases a jaw-dropping peak torque of 285N·m across a wide 1500-4000rpm band, ensuring massive instantaneous pulling power, shorter take-off rolls, and unrivaled high-altitude climbing capabilities for heavy payload deployment.


2. Gasoline Direct Injection & DOHC Valvetrain 

Equipped with an advanced Direct Injection fuel delivery architecture and a 10.5 compression ratio, fuel is atomized directly into the combustion chambers at ultra-high pressure. Guided by a precision Dual Overhead Camshaft (DOHC) valvetrain with 4 valves per cylinder (16 valves total), the engine achieves optimal thermal efficiency, maximizing net power to 130kW while keeping a stable piston linear speed of 15.68 m/s.


3. Lightweight All-Aluminum Design & Environmental Compliance (全铝合金轻量化与国VI环保标杆)

To achieve the optimal power-to-weight ratio crucial for aviation platforms, both the cylinder head and cylinder block are manufactured from premium high-strength aluminum alloy. Designed for modern sustainable aviation, it runs on standard 92 Octane Gasoline (92#) and fully complies with the highly stringent China VI (国VI) environmental emission standards.
