What does the 't' in 2.0t mean?
1 Answers
T generally represents turbocharging and supercharging. The 't' indicates that the engine is equipped with an advanced turbocharger, where the angle of the turbine blades is controlled by a computer to ensure boosting effects under different operating conditions, significantly increasing the car's power. Specific effects include: 1. Fast acceleration and high speed: When the car is moving, the exhaust gas from the engine is recycled and reprocessed by the turbocharger, supplementing energy, making acceleration faster than similar non-turbocharged cars. 2. Environmental protection and fuel efficiency: The exhaust gas is fully recirculated in the turbocharger, similar to a second combustion, not only more effectively reducing harmful gases in the exhaust but also saving fuel compared to similar models. 3. Strong power: The actual horsepower of a 1.8T engine during operation exceeds that of a 2.0-liter displacement, but the car price is lower than that of a 2.0-liter car, making it more economical.
