What displacement is equivalent to a 1.2T engine?
1 Answers
1.2T is equivalent to the horsepower output of a 1.6 to 1.8-liter naturally aspirated engine. A 1.2T engine is essentially a 1.2-liter naturally aspirated engine equipped with a turbocharger to enhance its power and torque output. The 'T' primarily increases the power, while the displacement remains unchanged at 1.2 liters. Similarly, a 1.0T engine still has only 1.0-liter displacement and does not increase the actual engine displacement due to turbocharging. Under the same displacement conditions, a 1.0T engine delivers more powerful performance than a 1.0-liter naturally aspirated engine and can also achieve better fuel efficiency to some extent.
