What is the difference between naturally aspirated and turbocharged engines?
1 Answers
The differences between naturally aspirated and turbocharged engines are: 1. Acceleration performance Turbocharged engines have stronger acceleration performance than naturally aspirated engines. 2. Comfort Naturally aspirated engines perform better in terms of idle quietness and smoothness, noise during cold starts, and operational stability compared to turbocharged engines. 3. Maintenance cost The maintenance cost of turbocharged engines is higher than that of naturally aspirated engines. Additional information: 1. Advantages of turbocharging Turbocharged engines generally achieve power levels equivalent to 1.3 to 1.5 times their displacement compared to naturally aspirated engines. However, this is a general comparison. In actual performance, turbocharged engines have stronger 'reserve power' after 3000 RPM, and some outstanding turbocharged engines can even provide an exciting 'climax.' In contrast, the reserve power of naturally aspirated engines, if any, is not as thrilling. 2. Advantages of naturally aspirated engines The power delivery of naturally aspirated engines is easier to control. This is mainly reflected in the output of throttle response during subtle adjustments. Naturally aspirated cars accelerate more smoothly, with relatively more consistent acceleration.
