The Subaru-Robin SP210 is a 211 cc (12.88 cu-in) single-cylinder air-cooled 4-stroke internal combustion small gasoline engine manufactured by Industrial Products division of Subaru Corporation for general-purpose applications.
The Subaru-Robin SP210 engine has an OHС (overhead camshaft) design; high compression ratio for better fuel efficiency; horizontal draft, float type carburetor; recoil starter and transistorized magneto ignition system.
It has a 67.0 mm (2.64 in) cylinder bore and 60.0 mm (2.36 in) piston stroke. Compression ratio rating is 8.5:1. The engine produced 7.0 PS (5.1 kW; 6.9 HP) at 4,000 rpm of maximum horsepower and 4.4 PS (3.2 kW; 4.3 HP) at 3,000 rpm or 5.0 PS (3.7 kW; 5.0 HP) at 3,600 rpm of continuous output power. Maximum torque is 13.9 N·m (1.4 kg·m, 10.2 ft·lb) at 2,500 rpm.
