What is the equivalent gasoline displacement for a 2.8t diesel engine?
1 Answers
A 2.8t diesel engine is equivalent to a 2.8-liter gasoline engine in displacement. The 2.8t displacement corresponds to that of a 3.5-liter naturally aspirated engine. The 't' in 2.8t stands for turbocharged, which is short for turbo. Turbocharging increases the engine's air intake without enlarging the displacement, making turbocharged engines more powerful and fuel-efficient compared to naturally aspirated engines. Gasoline is a volatile, flammable hydrocarbon mixture liquid derived from petroleum through distillation or cracking processes. It is primarily used as fuel for spark-ignited internal combustion engines and consists mainly of organic compounds obtained from crude oil distillation along with various additives.
