[3] This was the first device that made it possible to heat water hygienically, without contaminating it with combustion gases.
The higher powered version produced 100 hp (75 kW) and 230 N⋅m (170 lb⋅ft) of torque. [2] The 2.2 engine was introduced as a 115 hp (86 kW) unit, but in late 2000 was updated to 125 hp (93 kW) with 280 N⋅m (207 lb⋅ft) of torque from just 1,500 rpm, rather than the previous 260 N⋅m (192 lb⋅ft) from 1,900 rpm.
