Cars and Automobiles: What makes the I6, V8, V12 or W18 engines inherently balanced as opposed to I4s?
That makes sense. Are there any other factors that make these engines special?
Well, the number of cylinders can also affect an engine's power output and efficiency. Generally, the more cylinders an engine has, the more power it can produce. However, this also means the engine will use more fuel. So, it's a trade-off between power and efficiency. Additionally, the configuration of the cylinders (i.e. V-shaped, straight, or W-shaped) can affect an engine's size, weight, and overall design. These factors can impact performance and handling as well.
