In theory would a heavy car with a big engine be more fuel efficient one with a small engine?
Just something I’ve been thinking of lately. The main thesis behind all of this is that a heavy car with a big engine has to use less RPM to get it going, while a smaller engine has to rev higher = increasing the fuel consumption. An example would be between 728 and a 740. Tell me what you think.
If both vehicles had the same gear ratio at the final drive then your theory
would be correct… however they will not use the same gearing on a car
that produces way less power… power to weight ratio is usually the
determining factor.. thus making a vehicle that is peppy to drive and
still get good mileage..
