Is the car full of horsepower?

A: Not necessarily. Because the number of cylinders of an automobile engine is not the only factor that determines the high horsepower (that is, the output power of the engine).

Generally speaking, under the premise of the same cylinder diameter, the more cylinders, the greater the displacement and the higher the output power (horsepower); On the premise of the same number of cylinders, the larger the cylinder diameter, the greater the output power (horsepower); Under the same displacement (and the same horsepower), the more cylinders, the smaller the cylinder diameter and the higher the rotation speed, thus obtaining greater lifting power.

In addition, the number of cylinders commonly used in automobile engines is 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12. An engine with a displacement of less than 1 liter is usually three cylinders, an engine with a displacement of 1 ~ 2.5 liters is generally four cylinders, an engine with a displacement of about 3 liters is generally six cylinders, an engine with a displacement of about 4 liters is eight cylinders, and an engine with a displacement of more than 5.5 liters is 12.
