What's the Difference Between 1.5T and 1.6L?
1 Answers
1.5T and 1.6L differ in the following aspects: Displacement: Both 1.5T and 1.6L represent the engine displacement of a car. 1.5T refers to a 1.5L turbocharged engine, while 1.6L represents a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine. Fuel Consumption: The 1.5T engine is more fuel-efficient. However, the output horsepower of the 1.5T engine is 180, compared to 125 for the 1.6L engine. This means that to achieve the same horsepower output, the 1.5T engine saves at least 1.2L per 100 kilometers compared to the 1.6L engine. Engine Type: The 1.5T is equipped with a turbocharged engine. The fundamental difference between turbocharged and naturally aspirated engines is that the turbocharged engine increases air intake through a turbocharger. Since a turbocharged engine can deliver greater power at the same fuel consumption level, the 1.5T engine's power output is over 40% higher than that of the 1.6L engine. The power output of a 1.5T engine is equivalent to that of a 1.8L engine.
