The Astron engine debuted in late 1974 in capacities ranging from 1.9 litres to 2.6 litres. It was the first engine to feature balance shaft technology, which was used to dampen rocking and vertical forces in the interest of smoothness.
The engine featured "hemispherical" combustion chambers and 8 valves per cylinder in overhead cam configuration. It was designed for use in rear-wheel and four-wheel drive vehicles.
The Astron was used in both passenger and commercial vehicles. It was also available in both petrol and diesel forms.
