It is short for hemispherical! The combustion chamber is shaped like a half dome with the spark plug in the center therefore called hemispherical chamber or a hemi.. It is really not that big of a deal Toyota has used it for years..
Hemi now a days is nothing more than hype!
The Hemi used today is nothing like the old engine used 35 years ago !!
