Engineering:List of Suzuki engines

Short description: none

This is a list of automobile engines developed and sold by the Suzuki Motor Corporation. Suzuki is unusual in never having made a pushrod automobile engine, and in having depended on two-strokes for longer than most. Their first four-stroke engine was the SOHC F8A, which appeared in 1977. Suzuki continued to offer a two-stroke engine in an automotive application for a considerably longer time than any other Japanese manufacturer.

Straight twins

Suzulight SF Series

360.88 cc (22.022 cu in) air-cooled 2-stroke, 59 mm × 66 mm (2.32 in × 2.60 in) bore × stroke (downsleeved copy of Lloyd LP400 engine)

• 1955–1959 Suzulight SF
• 1959–1963 Suzulight 360TL / Van 360 (TL)

FA/FC (prototype)

360 cc (22 cu in) 2-stroke, 64 mm × 56 mm (2.52 in × 2.20 in) bore/stroke. This prototype produced 25 bhp (19 kW) at 6000 rpm. It was fitted to a rear-engined prototype (also named FC) in 1961, as part of the development work for the LC10 Fronte.

Daihatsu's AB10

• 1977.6–1978 – Daihatsu AB10 engine – 0.55 L

E08A engine

Three cylinders

C engine — 2-stroke

  • 1965.12–1969.10 Suzuki Fronte 800

1967–1977 – Suzuki LC engine – 0.36–0.48 L

FB engine

Rather than being a newly developed engine, the T5 series is essentially an FB/L50 2-cylinder with a third cylinder added, its origins thus dating back to 1961.
