1 Answers
V6 engine is a six-cylinder engine. Extended information is as follows:1. Introduction: A V6 engine refers to a V-type engine with 6 cylinders. The six cylinders are divided into two rows, with three in each row, and there is a certain angle between the two rows of cylinders, typically around 60° or 90°. This engine is the second most common engine structure in modern cars, second only to the inline four-cylinder engine.2. Construction: The V6 engine is a compact engine design, which is shorter than an inline four-cylinder engine and more compact than most V8 designs. Due to this characteristic, V6 engines are widely used in front-wheel-drive layout cars. As modern cars require more horsepower while the space allocated for the engine is decreasing, the more compact V6 engine has become increasingly common.
