What is the displacement of the Mercedes-Benz E240?
1 Answers
The displacement of the Mercedes-Benz E240 is 2.6 liters. Meaning of displacement: A specialized term in hydraulic transmission, it refers to the volume of fluid inhaled or discharged per stroke or cycle. Generally, a larger displacement means the engine releases more energy per unit time (converting chemical energy of fuel into mechanical energy), resulting in better "power performance." It's like comparing a teenager to a healthy adult—the adult is naturally more efficient at physical labor. Therefore, SUVs and sports cars usually have relatively larger displacements. Displacement classification: Generally, the larger the displacement, the higher the engine's technical requirements and the greater the output power. In simpler terms, cars with higher power are faster (assuming the same weight). Within the same car series, models with larger displacements usually come with higher configurations. For example, the Audi A6 1.8T does not come standard with full-time four-wheel drive, while the A6 4.2 does, making it tens of thousands more expensive than the 1.8T model. Larger displacements also correspond to higher fuel consumption per 100 kilometers. However, there is no fixed formula between the two, as driver control alone makes it impossible to standardize.
