3.0 naturally aspirated cars include the Jeep Wrangler, Ford Mustang, and Jeep Grand Cherokee. Taking the 2020 Ford Mustang as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4794mm, width 1916mm, height 1391mm, wheelbase 2720mm, fuel tank capacity 58.9l, and curb weight 1702kg. The 2020 Ford Mustang features a front MacPherson strut independent suspension and a rear multi-link independent suspension. It is equipped with a 2.3l turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 299ps, maximum power of 220kw, and maximum torque of 434nm, paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission.

I think the 3.0 naturally aspirated cars are quite classic, like the old Lexus LS400. Its engine responds very quickly and drives exceptionally smoothly, without the turbo lag. I've also tried the 3.0 version of the Toyota Crown. The engine is quite durable, running over 100,000 kilometers without major repairs, but the fuel consumption isn't low, around 11 liters in the city. It's suitable for those who prefer quiet driving. Nowadays, most new cars use turbochargers, but these older cars are very popular in the used car market and are simpler to maintain, just changing spark plugs can get the job done.

I've driven some 3.0 naturally aspirated cars, like the Honda Accord V6 and the older BMW 330i. The acceleration is linear, and they respond immediately when you step on the gas, unlike turbocharged cars that can feel jerky. For daily commuting, the Honda model has spacious interiors, and the rear seats are comfortable for passengers, with fuel consumption around 10 liters per 100 km, which isn't too expensive. Compared to current turbocharged cars, naturally aspirated engines are quieter, with less noise during long highway drives, making the ride more relaxed. I think young people would enjoy this driving feel because it's more pure and direct, without the complexity of dealing with intricate systems.

The 3.0 naturally aspirated engine delivers smooth driving with direct response and ample power. The older V6 version of the Toyota Camry is a classic example, providing confidence when overtaking on highways. These types of engines have a simple structure and low failure rates, such as the Lexus GS300 variant, with relatively low maintenance costs—just an oil change can keep it running for a long time. Fuel consumption is around 11-12 liters, which isn’t the most economical but is reliable, making it suitable for those who prioritize driving enjoyment.
