i've talked once to a toyota casa mechanic and nasabi nya mas matipid daw yung 2.0 kesa sa 1.8 (that's everything else equal).
he's explanation is that both of the cars have relatively the same weight, since the 2.0 offers a greater(?) push than the 1.8, the earlier will be more efficient in moving the cars weight than the latter.
I'm not sure if I'm going to believe what that man had said, not sure also if he just wants me to buy the much expensive 2.0 then. but guys and gals, what's your perspective on this issue
yup sa palagay ko rin. i myself drive the 2.0 compared it with my cousin's 1.8 mas matipid siya kasi mas mabilis mag upshift kaya less time na nakadepress yung accelerator kasi nga mas mabilis humatak. pero kung bumper to bumper traffic naman let's say for
one hour na bumper to bumper traffic mas malakas yung 2.0.
pero kung iisipin mo ok na yung 1.8 mas mura ng more or less 200,000. sa makina konti lang diperensya halos. yung porma naman dadagdagan mo lang ng konti like yung flares pwede na rin. pinakadownside lang siguro yung 4wd iba pa rin yung handling ng 4wd kumpara sa 2wd. pero sa traffic naman sa manila sino may kailangan ng magandang handling diba.
Alex.... i'd tend to agree with the mechanic. Given the same driving style, you will shift at a lower RPM with the bigger engine, because you'd have achieved the desired torque earlier...... therefore, you would be consuming less gas.
Of course thats only my opinion.
Atayin lang natin ang sagot ng mga Physicists natin dito
By principle, hindi masyado effective yung reason na earlier shifting. The bigger deal would be the engine design. pareho bang fuel injected yung engines. 2.0 palang nadadala ko na matic, lecheng takaw sa gas. Malakas engine pero ang sama nung tranny. parang ayaw kumapit nung torque converter. Napakalayo sa matic ng honda.
haahha pajerokid napaisip din ako dun ah REVO na 4x4 hehehe... oo nga sa tingin mo sa rav din ba ganun ang case?? mas matipid ang 2.0 sa 1.8?? ndi ata noh kasi 4x4 un 2.0 eh
mukhang gagana un explanation ng mechanic if lagi kang highway driving but if manila ka ndi ata
nasa 12-14km/L ako highway pero d yan accurate sobra.. hehe 1zz-fe un 1.8 namin na engine. un sa inu 1az-fe dapat dba? same lang ba un sa binanggit mo??
hahaha... ok gulat ako eh iba un binanggit mong engine hehe malakas pala talga matic noh plus 2.0 para laki pala tinitipid namin. nung pumunta kasi kami ng pangasinan 210KM daw ata un, kita na kennon eh sa malau. balikan in 1 day tas mga 1/4 pa ang naiwan sa tank!! nag fulltank pala kami galing shell bulacan banda.

Malamang tama yung mechanic.. everytime na nagpapa-tune-up or PMS ako sa toyota eh nakikipag kwentuhan ako sa mga mechanics nila habang ginagawa nila car mo.. tapos ayun nabanggit nga nila ang madalas na complain ng mga buyers eh sobrang lakas daw sa gas ng mga 1.8 na revo lalo na mga automatic.. usually daw eh meron ina-adjust ng konti sa makina para maging matipid pero halos wala daw difference sabi sa akin.. ganon daw talaga ng 1.8 7K-E na makina... btw, revo diesel yung pinapa-pms namin that time...
after 1 year kahit sinabi na sa amin ng mechanic yun eh bili pa din kami revo GSX 2.0 M/T .. gusto ko kasi ng mabilis dahil kaskasero ako hehe...... although 105hp lang 2.0 na revo compared sa 94hp na 1.8 revo din na gas, di ko alam kung malaki na difference nito ..
pag ni-check mo loob ng engine compartment ng 1.8 eh maliit lang makina at kasya pa ata isang bata sa loob... pero sa 2.0 eh malaki engine size nya... yung 1.8 eh 7K-E engine pero yung 2.0 eh 1RZ-E na.. iba siguro engine technology na gamit at pwedeng napa-tipid ng toyota ng konti..
