What does 1.5L and 1.5T displacement mean?
1 Answers
Displacement 1.5L refers to a naturally aspirated engine with a displacement of 1.5 liters; 1.5T refers to a turbocharged engine with a displacement of 1.5 liters. Naturally Aspirated: Naturally aspirated is a type of car intake that forces air into the combustion chamber without any supercharger, relying solely on atmospheric pressure. Turbocharging is a technology that uses exhaust gases produced by internal combustion engine operation to drive an air compressor. Comparison: The 1.5L engine has relatively high reliability, lower failure rates during use, and relatively low daily maintenance costs. For vehicles with a 1.5T engine, the turbocharger may need to be replaced after reaching 150,000 kilometers, and the maintenance costs for 'T' engines are higher.
