JTD (uniJet Turbo Diesel) is Fiat Group's term for its current common rail turbodiesel engine range. The MultiJet name is used in the second generation common rail units. Most of the Fiat, Alfa Romeo and Lancia range has JTD engines. Ownership of the Fiat JTD design is shared with General Motors as part of a settlement of the failed merger between the two auto conglomerates. GM Powertrain Europe group in Turin, Italy manages their interest in these engines.

A small 1.3 L (1248 cc) version (called the SDE, Small Diesel Engine) is produced in Bielsko-Biala, Poland. The Multijet 75 PS version was chosen in 2005 as the International Engine of the Year in the 1-litre to 1.4-litre category.
There are three versions of this engine: a 70 PS (69 hp/51 kW), a 75 PS (74 hp/55 kW) (used in the Fiat Punto, Panda, Palio / Albea, Fiat Idea, Opel Corsa / Combo, Opel Meriva and Suzuki Swift) and a variable inlet geometry 90 PS (89 hp/66 kW) (used in the new Fiat Grande Punto, Fiat Linea, Opel Corsa and Opel Astra). At the time of the launch this was the smallest four-cylinder diesel engine available and has a fuel consumption of 72 mpg (3.3 L/100 km) in some applications. The engine is able to meet Euro IV pollution standards without the use of a diesel particulate filter.

The most common JTD engine is the 1.9 L (1910 cc) straight-4 found in the Fiat Punto, Doblò, Stilo and Croma. It produces 80 PS (79 hp/59 kW) and reaches 36 mpg (6.6 L/100 km) in city driving. The first car that used this engine was Alfa Romeo 156 in 1997 (105 PS (104 hp/77 kW)), making it the world's first common rail diesel passenger car. In 1999 it was introduced with the Fiat Punto and Fiat Brava/Fiat Bravo/Fiat Marea. The engine block weighs approximately 125 kg. Most common model found is the 115 PS model as fitted to the Stilo.
The Multijet second generation common rail has three versions. The 8-valve version has 120 PS and 130 PS with variable inlet geometry; and the 16 valve version has 150 PS, that can be found on the Croma.

The 2.4 L (2387 cc) straight-5 version is based on the 2.4 126 PS (124 hp/93 kW) 5 cylinder TD engine as used in the Mk1 Fiat Marea. The JTD version benefits from the solid build of the TD block, and an improved head/injection system. There are 2 versions of the 2.4JTD, the 10-valve as used in the Fiat Marea 130JTD and the earlier Alfa Romeo 156 diesels where it was available as 136 PS (134 hp/100 kW),140 PS (138 hp/103 kW), 150 PS (148 hp/110 kW) and later a 20-valve version 175 PS (173 hp/129 kW) as used in the later (2003>) Alfa Romeo 156 as well as some Lancia vehicles. It was designed for transverse front-wheel drive use and was deemed too long and tall for widespread use in other GM or Fiat products. The multijet variant of this engine, capable for 200 PS (197 hp/147 kW), is currently used in the Alfa Romeo 159, Alfa Romeo Brera and Fiat Croma. The latest version of this engine produces 210 PS (207 hp/154 kW) and 400 N·m (295 ft·lbf) at 1500 rpm, and is used in Alfa Romeo vehicles.[4]
