Which is more fuel-efficient, 2.4L or 2.0T?
1 Answers
2.4L is more fuel-efficient. The 2.0T is a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, while the 2.4L is a 2.4-liter naturally aspirated engine. The 2.0T turbocharged engine has a much larger air intake volume compared to the 2.4L naturally aspirated engine, so the 2.0T delivers more power and consumes more fuel than the 2.4L. The main differences between the 2.0T and 2.4L are as follows: 1. Principle of turbocharging: In the same unit of time, a turbocharged engine can force more air-fuel mixture into the cylinder for compression and combustion, resulting in greater power output than a naturally aspirated engine, but with higher fuel consumption. 2. Function: Turbocharged engines make the car more powerful, which is better for frequent high-speed driving, as they accelerate quickly, but are harder to control smoothly. Naturally aspirated engines provide smoother acceleration, with speed increasing gradually, making them easier to control. 3. Advantages: Naturally aspirated engines, with their long history of technical development, are relatively more refined and reliable, with stable quality. They have lower fuel quality requirements compared to turbocharged engines, and their structure and maintenance are simpler. Naturally aspirated engines have advantages in smoothness, durability, stability, and safety over turbocharged engines.
