Which Cars Use Rotary Engines?
1 Answers
Mazda's models utilize rotary engines, such as the Mazda RX7 and Mazda RX8. The rotary engine eliminates the reciprocating motion effect of pistons in traditional engine cylinders, directly converting the combustion expansion force of fuel and mixed gases into driving torque. Therefore, in terms of size, the rotary engine is smaller than traditional engines, while also featuring a low center of gravity and lightweight characteristics, which to some extent can enhance the car's handling. The Mazda RX8 is a sports car under Mazda, with dimensions of 4460mm in length, 1770mm in width, and 1340mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2700mm. The Mazda RX8's engine has a maximum power of 170 kilowatts and a maximum torque of 211 Newton-meters. This engine is equipped with direct fuel injection technology and uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block.
