The Buick GL6 does not have a model equipped with a four-cylinder engine. The entire lineup uses a 1.3-liter turbocharged three-cylinder engine. A three-cylinder engine is an engine composed of three cylinders. Inside it, three identical single cylinders are arranged on one engine block sharing a single crankshaft to output power. Its main function is to convert chemical energy into mechanical energy. Main advantages of a three-cylinder engine: Low fuel consumption, strong power, compact size and lightweight, suitable for hybrid models. The four-cylinder engine's main body consists of components such as the cylinder block, crankcase, cylinder head, and cylinder gasket. Its basic principle is to convert the thermal energy of gasoline (or diesel) into mechanical energy by pushing the piston to do work through the expansion of burning gas in a sealed cylinder. Advantages of a four-cylinder engine: Since the four cylinders of a four-cylinder engine work simultaneously, with two pairs corresponding exactly, the balance of a four-cylinder engine is excellent, almost eliminating vibration issues. In terms of power performance, it is stronger than a three-cylinder engine.
