X-TORQ by Husqvarna is a cutting-edge new two-stroke engine technology that’s friendlier to the environment and delivers more power across a wider RPM spectrum. This construction equipment’s technology is a significant improvement over typical two-stroke engines that are less fuel-efficient, more polluting and lack the pulling power and flexibility of a four-stroke engine.

Two-stroke and four-stroke engines have some fundamental differences that must be understood in order to appreciate the advantages of Husqvarna’s new X-TORQ technology. First of all, they are the two different versions of gasoline and diesel engines and can be distinguished by their distinct stroke sequences. As their names suggest, two-stroke engines have a two-stroke sequence whereas four-stroke engines have a four-stroke sequence. The four strokes of a four-stroke engine, in order, are the compression stroke, power stroke, exhaust stroke and intake stroke. In a two-stroke engine, however, the power, exhaust and intake strokes are combined into a single stroke, called the power stroke.

Each type of engine offers its own unique advantages and disadvantages. Four-stroke engines provide clean, flexible power and greater torque at lower speeds. They offer slower revving, are quieter and consume less fuel than two-stroke engines. However, they’re quite a bit heavier, larger and more complex than two-stroke engines, and can only be used in a fixed position. Two-stroke engines, on the other hand, provide twice the power of four-stroke engines of the same size and are more compact. They’re also lightweight, less complex (with only three moving parts) and can be used in any position. But two-stroke engines typically have the serious disadvantages of consuming more fuel, requiring large quantities of expensive lubricants and being much less durable, which means they’re less economical to run. They also emit much more pollution, generate twice the amount of noise and are less flexible (due to their narrower power band) than four-strokes.

In spite of the numerous disadvantages of two-stroke engines, they are more appropriate for powering chainsaws and other handheld construction equipment for a few reasons. For one, a chainsaw engine must have a high power-to-weight ratio, which means that it ought to be lightweight and powerful at the same time. It must also be compact, so that it’s easy to handle, and able to operate in any position. Two-stroke engines may not offer the flexibility, economy, reduced emissions and durability of four-stroke engines, but given the fact that chainsaws aren’t used for long periods of time and are only run at full speed, these disadvantages aren’t as great a concern.

Nevertheless, if it were possible to create a two-stroke engine that was as clean, economical and flexible as a four-stroke engine, that would be a significant advantage. And in fact, that is the idea behind Husqvarna’s X-TORQ technology. X-TORQ gives you the benefits of a powerful engine without forcing you to sacrifice the environmentally-friendly features of fuel economy and low emissions. A two-stroke X-TORQ engine consumes 20% less fuel than its standard two-stroke counterpart, as a matter of fact, and its exhaust emissions are 60% reduced. In addition, X-TORQ engines provide powerful torque across a wider RPM range, providing greater flexibility than standard two-stroke engines. This groundbreaking technology has been tested on a number of Husqvarna saws and may very well be the most efficient small two-stroke engine manufactured to date.
