V - Variable valve timing
05 June 2006
Variable valve timing - Valves let fuel and air in and out of the engine's cylinders. In most cars, the timing of the valves' opening is fixed to offer a fair compromise across the whole rev range. VVT, however, adjusts the timing with the speed of the engine so that it is always working at its peak efficiency.
