What is the difference between 1.5 and 1.6 car engine displacement?
1 Answers
1.5 and 1.6 refer to the engine displacement, which is the difference in the size of the engine displacement. Below is an introduction related to car engine displacement: 1. Displacement is the total working volume of all cylinders in the engine, calculated by multiplying the volume swept by the piston from top dead center to bottom dead center by the number of cylinders. Displacement is a crucial structural parameter that comprehensively measures the size of the engine. The performance indicators of the engine are closely related to its displacement. Generally, the larger the displacement of a car, the higher its power output. Unit displacement is commonly used as a basis for evaluating the size of different engines. 2. According to the standards in mainland China, cars are classified as follows: mini cars (displacement below 1L), compact cars (displacement between 1.0~1.6L), mid-size cars (displacement between 2.5~4.0L), and full-size cars (displacement above 4L). 3. In the past, China was a country dominated by a planned economy, with weak market awareness and low price sensitivity. At that time, cars were sold under a planned distribution model, and the classification of cars was based on engine displacement, dividing them into mini cars, compact cars, mid-size cars, mid-full-size cars, and full-size cars.
