G4KD 2.0

The G4KD 2.0 is built around the G4KD, a 2.0L Inline-4 petrol engine with a DOHC, 16-valve, CVVT cylinder head, running without forced induction. Theta-family engine used across mid-size sedans. This unit is supplied by Tovesageneral Motors as a tested, ready-to-fit replacement for workshops and owners who need genuine factory characteristics rather than a generic substitute, and every engine is pulled from a running donor vehicle rather than sourced blind from an unknown history. Choosing a like-for-like G4KD over a cheaper mismatched substitute avoids the wiring, mounting and ECU-calibration headaches that come with swapping in a different engine family.

Key Specifications: Configuration - Inline-4, 2.0L displacement. Valvetrain - DOHC, 16-valve, CVVT. Fuel System - Petrol injection. Aspiration - Naturally Aspirated. Power Output - approximately 165 hp (123 kW). Torque - 197 Nm. These figures reflect the factory-rated output for the G4KD in its most common calibration; individual market tunes, transmission pairing and emissions equipment can shift the exact number slightly from one production year to the next, so always cross-check against the specific model year of your vehicle.

Performance Highlights: Theta-family engine used across mid-size sedans. Expect the typical driving character of a naturally aspirated petrol inline-4: predictable, linear throttle response that builds smoothly with revs, backed by fewer high-pressure components to maintain over the engine's life than a forced-induction equivalent. As with any used engine, we recommend a full service history review along with a compression/leak-down check before installation, plus a visual inspection of the timing components, seals, mounts, and ancillaries (alternator, water pump, turbocharger where fitted) prior to fitment.

Common Applications: The G4KD was factory-fitted to Hyundai Sonata, Kia Optima. If you are sourcing this engine for a different chassis, confirm the exact engine code stamped on the block and the wiring/ECU variant before ordering, since several body styles shared this family across multiple model years and markets. Our team can help verify fitment against your VIN before dispatch so the engine you receive matches your loom, mounts and transmission bellhousing pattern.
