All engines, both petrol and diesel, have an overhead camshaft driven by a toothed belt. In the most powerful versions, the engines have four valves per cylinder and, accordingly, two camshafts on one cylinder head.
The power supply system of gasoline engines can be either with a carburetor or with a gasoline injection system. Both petrol and diesel engines can be turbocharged. All engines use electronic control systems (computer), providing stability of operational characteristics and minimum toxicity of exhaust gases.
The engine make and number are stamped on the front of the engine.
The vehicle number is stamped on a nameplate located on the underside of the vehicle between the driver's door and the driver's seat.

- 1 - Type of system for reducing the toxicity of exhaust gases. "WITH" - controlled catalyst
- 2 - The working volume of the cylinders. "20" - 2.0 l
- 3 - Degree of compression. "G": 8.5, "L": 8.5-9.0, "N": 9.0-9.5. "S": 9.5-10.0, "X": 10.0-11.5, "Y": 11.5
- 4 - Power supply system. "E" - distributed injection, "Z" - central injection, "V" - carburetor, "D" - diesel engine
- 5 - Execution. "T" - turbocharging, "R", "H" - increased power, "J" - limited power
