The Ford Duratec V6, is an aluminum DOHC V6 engine with a 60° bank angle introduced in 1993 with the Ford Mondeo. The primary engineering came from Porsche,^[1] who was developing this engine before selling the engineering to Ford, and Cosworth, who helped with cylinder head manufacturing.^[2] The Jaguar AJ-V6 engine is similar but adds variable valve timing.
