Technical Specifications
Product Overview
The Toyota / Daihatsu 3SZ-VE 1.5L gasoline engine is a highly reliable and versatile powertrain widely utilized across a vast range of compact cars, SUVs, and light commercial vehicles. Displacing 1,495cc, this inline-4, DOHC 16-valve engine features Toyota’s VVT-i (or Daihatsu’s DVVT) technology, delivering an excellent balance of fuel efficiency, low-end torque, and everyday durability. Producing between 103 and 109 horsepower, it is an ideal powerplant for both passenger transport and heavy-duty commercial logistics.
This engine serves as a direct replacement for highly popular global models, including the Toyota Avanza, Rush, bB, and TownAce, as well as the Daihatsu Terios, Sirion, Materia, and Gran Max. It is also heavily utilized in the Perodua Myvi and Alza. Due to its exceptional durability and widespread application in both transverse (FWD) and longitudinal (RWD) layouts, the 3SZ-VE remains in massive demand across the global automotive aftermarket.
For B2B buyers, auto parts wholesalers, and engine rebuilders, sourcing 3SZ-VE bare engines and complete assemblies provides a highly profitable solution for aftermarket repairs and fleet maintenance. Whether supplying independent repair shops or large-scale distributors, this 1.5L engine platform delivers exact OEM fitment, restored performance, and outstanding wholesale value. Buyers must verify the specific mounting layout (FWD vs. RWD) and oil pan configuration to ensure exact compatibility.
