What does 660cc displacement refer to?
1 Answers
The displacement of a car refers to the total capacity of all the cylinders in the engine. For example, if a car engine has 4 cylinders, each with a capacity of 0.5L, then the engine's displacement is 0.5L × 4 = 2.0L. Alternatively, if a car engine has 6 cylinders, each with a capacity of 0.6L, then the engine's displacement is 0.6L × 6 = 3.6L. Introduction to displacement: The 'T' stands for Turbo, which is short for turbocharging, indicating an engine equipped with a turbocharging device. The 'L' stands for liters, the unit of displacement, and generally refers to a naturally aspirated engine. 2.0L means the engine has a displacement of 2.0 liters. Difference between 1.6L and 2.0L displacement: Depending on technical differences, a 2.0L car's performance is roughly between 1.4T and 1.8T. 1.6L indicates that the car is equipped with a naturally aspirated engine with a displacement of 1.6 liters. 1.6T indicates that the car is equipped with a turbocharged engine with a displacement of 1.6 liters. 2.0L means the car is equipped with a naturally aspirated engine with a displacement of 2.0 liters. 2.0T indicates that the car is equipped with a turbocharged engine with a displacement of 2.0 liters. Essentially, 2.0T adds turbocharging to a naturally aspirated 2.0L engine. Conversion of displacement: In Western countries, the general conversion is to multiply the displacement of a turbocharged engine by 1.4 to get the equivalent car displacement (for comparison with naturally aspirated L vehicles, facilitating tax management, etc.). In China, both 2.0T and 2.0L cars are taxed based on a 2.0 displacement for purchase tax purposes. However, the conversion standards may vary depending on different vehicle models.
