1 Answers
Engine displacement refers to the volume of fluid that is inhaled or expelled per stroke or cycle. Below is an introduction to engine displacement: 1. The relationship between engine compatibility and displacement: In automobiles, how well the engine is matched with the vehicle has a significant impact on fuel economy. If a small-displacement engine is poorly matched, it may not be more fuel-efficient than a large-displacement engine and could even consume more fuel. 2. Classification of car levels: In China, car levels are classified based on engine displacement. Mini cars have a displacement of ≤1.0L; compact cars have a displacement ranging from 1.0L to 1.6L; midsize cars have a displacement ranging from 1.6L to 2.5L; executive cars have a displacement ranging from 2.5L to 4.0L; and luxury cars have a displacement of >4.0L.
