1989 Geo Metro Hatchback 1L 3cyl, 5sp, 50mpg, 5 doors, a/c, etc Incredible high torgue engine, no lugging with the long stroke, I could drive to Las Vegas at 90mph, great car, I put 200,000miles on it after 10 years and it still looked and ran like new. The earlier version 1988 Chev version had a turbo and was a beast.
I've owned a Mitsubishi Mirage with a 1.2 litre, 3 cylinder, naturally aspirated engine for 10 years and 120,000 klms, it has been ultra reliable and consistently gives 4.5 litres per hundred klm, (approx 60 mpg), I find the engine to very adequate to the chassis dynamics of this small car and great, economical transport.
@@TheEngineersPostWas 3 cylinders used on motorcycles?!. And how about the rotar rx7 engine what is that?!.Box engines?!. And if possible can you do twin turbo or turbo+super charger on a 3 cylinder engine?!.
I had a Honda NSR 400, Nissan Juke 1.2 3 cylinder and a Peugeot 2008 GT line 1.2 3 Cylinder, every one was quick enough. Technology really has moved with the times.
And they all sound like they're misfiring. Horrible drone boxes, if it has less than 4 cyclinders I won't own it, same goes for cars without a mechanical handbrake, manual gearbox and physical start key.

Back in the 80’s I had a Yamaha V-Max V4. It was so powerful it was banned in some markets. Then I managed to buy a Vincent Black Shadow from 1955 which did 150 mph. Insanely fast & advanced for its era. It was nicknamed the plumber’s nightmare from all the external hydraulic lines. Today I drive a 2022 Subaru WRX, twin scroll turbo 2.4 litre boxer engine.
Back in the 1998, I had 2 vehicles. One was a 92 Geo Metro with a 3cylinder 1.0 liter engine, stick, no options basic car with 70,000 miles. I purchased this car for $100 and it had front end damage. The other was a 1993 Suzuki Swift with a 4cylinder 1.3 liter engine, stick, no options basic car with 5,000 miles. I purchased this car for $2500 (salvage title). The Suzuki was dropped from the car hauler when it was delivered and had 0 miles and it was totaled. The gal I purchased it from sold it 4 years later. The Geo Metro was a gift to my brother-in-law when he came from Poland. The Metro was repaired, at a cost of less than $500 total, including a hood, paint, clutch and the $100 price of the car. Both of these cars were made by Suzuki and were reliable. The Metro came with only the 3 cylinder and thr Swift only with the 4 cylinder engine. The 4cylinder was stronger than the 3cylinder, everything else was the same. My broth-in-law kept the Metro for 19 months, he would use it to work for 2 weeks on $5 worth of gas. He then sold it at work to a gal for $1150, he needed a bigger car. The Swift I sold 5 months later to my nephew for what I paid for it, he wanted it badly. About a year later the Metro was doing well, but the Swift developed an electronic problem that was intermittent and unreliable and it was sold. Both of these cars were great on mileage, I never really saw or felt any differences between them. Thanks…Jim PS….I have rented a 1990 Ford Fiesta 1.0 liter 4 cylinder, stick, basic car in 1990 for a tour in Belgium, West Germany, East Germany and Poland. I put on 4500 kilometers in 3 weeks. It had great gas mileage and was comparable to the above cars. Mechanically it was no problem, however it was new and I lost the spare tire on the Autobahn in West Germany at the end of my trip. It was not properly fastened at the factory, being under the car in a covered storage, when it dropped the cover was dragging on the road surface. Luckily traffic was low and I retrieved it and replaced it. Gasoline in Europe was about $4.50 a gallon, in 1990.
I have a 3 cylinder BMW turbo diesel and I don't like the relative lack of flexibility that inevitably follows the reduction in firing strokes. I like to be able to pull away gently at low revs - maybe 1100 rpm for a 4cyl but the 3 cyl is not happy below about 1500 rpm. I also have a 5 cyl volvo that seems happy pulling away from idle - about 900 rpm.
Yep, but use the perhaps triple-sized (and double weight) middle piston both as a (two-stroke) re-expansion cylinder for the other two (four-stroke) combustion cylinders AND as a positive crankcase pump that feeds crankcase vapors to the oxygenating catalytic converter instead of the current intake vacuum system that feeds crankcase goop into the induction system, which gunks everything up, especially when direct injection is used. This keeps the induction system clean and means that the reducing cat will see oxygen-free conditions while the oxygenating cat will see oxygen rich conditions, improving both cats. It works because the middle cylinder is bigger than the other two combined, so pressure in the crankcase wavers. Add a check valve from the intake to the crankcase and another from the crankcase to the oxygenating cat (which is always after the reducing cat). Way cheaper emissions system that works far better, too. (Patent pending 1/8/24)
I have a Vauxhall Astra K SRI NAV 1.4 petrol with a cvt gearbox with a 3 cylinder engine ,I purchased this car new in 2021 and I believe the engine is a GM engine ( maybe you can confirm this, or not? ) this is the only 3 cylinder car I have ever had or driven and, I have to say that that power it has is surprisingly good and, it's very good on fuel returning on a long journey 56 miles to a gallon.
I owned three 3 cyl cars since 2011. Now I have a toyota vitz 1krfe 1.0 mated to a cvt. Its is not that peppy but after gaining some speed it happiy pulls away. And also its not that efficient in bumper to bumper traffic compared to 1.5 4 cyl cars. But its quite on par with them in highway efficiency
I just purchased a 2024 Chevy Trax with a 1.2L 3-cylinder turbo engine 3 months ago and it has been performing well. I sue it as a daily commuter to my job and I am quite pleased with its performance and fuel economy. Let's see how many years of good service it provides.
You just bought it & all cars drive good brand new. You don't know how good a car is until it hits 100K. 3 cylinder Engines in SUVs with Turbos is like a person on Methamphetamine. Sure at first it seems great with your body on overdrive but you age faster just like a small turbo engine. Also these small turbos require better seals because they produce a lot more pressure & pressures what causes engine seals & gaskets to blow. Also these engine have Direct Injection which causes carbon build up which is a nightmare to clean & will cause constant emissions codes. The truth is they didn't build these for longevity & if you dropped a v6 in these same bodies with that transmission they'd be so much more reliable & probably last a long long time. The only good thing about a 3 cylinder is there gonna create a lot of job opportunities for Mechanics & there's a lot of room to work under the hood. Personally i'd rather have the hood closed as much as possible.
We have a a triple (naturally aspirated) in our peugoet 2016 108. It puts out around 67 bhp and returns 55mpg overall. You have to use it's tall gearing to wind it up a hill but at 99 g/km it attracts on road tax in the UK. The car is a around 900kg so just adequate really, nippy around town.
As I thought, the simulation confirmed that in a 4 stroke 3 cylinder engine, it has one BLIND shaft revolution when it is NOT generating power, therefore it is against the 4 stroke duty cycle principle!
Between the 1.2 naturally aspirated 3 cylinder Engine on the Toyota RAIZE vs the Turbo charged 1.0l version which you feel is better? I'm a female by the way and i'm stuck on which Variant to buy. Like what's the real difference here and does the extra money worth going turbo?
From my experience, the hyundai turbocharged Kappa 3-cylinder performs way better than a naturally aspirated 4-cylinder 1.6L Gamma engine, at the same fuel consumption. The vibration is mild nuisance tho.
I'm surprised they haven't tried to implement a tri-axis engine, with each cylinder at either 60 degrees,or 120 degrees! Lubrication sealing would be a pita, but use of a dry sump system for 2, or all 3 cylinders could possibly work!
uhh, that's called a radial engine... and they've been around just about as long as multicylinder engines in general... and you either have a wet or dry sump... not this cylinder is dry and this one's somehow gonna be wet, absolutely not how it works.
I love 3 cylinder engines, but I hate the CVT that's paired with it, Toyota Raize 2022 is our car and it does well for regular city and highway, fuel efficient. but low on power, if I had the money, I'd ship Toyota GR Corola over our place and use that instead. not complaining about the durability, only complaining about the speed and how fast it picks up. there is a manual mode, but that deteriorates the CVT ( no belt problems so far... hopefully )
Yes my first car opel corsa c was a 3 zyl.. it sucked… now i have a opel corsa e opc with 150hp 4 zyl. Of course it is a rocket.. and i also have a opel corsa d 75hp diesel 4 zyl. It can reach 1100km with one tank .. i like 4 Zylinder and above
Well, I had a lot of experience with VW platform engines. Four cylinder engines always produced mooooore torque, are more silent and definitely more reliable then same volume three cylinder. Actually I use 1.2l petrol 4-cylinder and by my experience I will never exchange it for 3-cylinder! By the way for comparison, in my private car I have 2l 4-cylinder diesel with 200hp and even the car is 1,5x heavier, AWD and is older, has lower consumption and less emissions. What a stupid EU regulations!

Kind of like GM's piece of garbage 5-cylinder motor? GM made it purposefully backfire and sputter; a defect which would eventually caused a failed catalytic converter. GM did the same with 4 cylinder motors. Time to vote with your wallet people
Yea that's what i thought until i drove a 1.0 ecoboost Fiesta and i own one 😂poor engine still goes off like a rocket and has 135.000km on it with only the turbo being swapped once
25,000 plus tax and delivery and its at leasts 27,000 for 3cly its a rip off .CHEEP,t his country is to big for three cilinder cars, They will fail, as a FAD
Cylinder and all combustion engines are obsolete. Long live electric motors. Nikola Tesla said it best; "The present belongs to you. The future is mine". What a visionary genius...!
Yep. But electric motors also have some shortcomings, like they run out of Torque at higher RPM(s). Or require insane cooling systems (yep, more insane than combustion engines).
NO electric motors have their problems to overheat explode leak or run shortages There's many ways to power them though whether it be nuclear hydrogen fuel cells lithium or solar panels But gas is more cheaper all gone is the era of strong gas diesel engines I think the v10 naturally aspirated is UNMATCHED
Unless they allow a nuclear battery which virtually never needs charging, Electric remains stagnant Combustion engines are the future V8 V10 V12 with green hydrogen. Tesla hasn't done anything special and battery tech is still the same electric motors are the same as old 1930s and I believe he just used "aaa" joined together to make the battery packs.

Maruti Suzuki Wagonar 4 cylinder petrol engine gives 24km per liter average. The company claims 26km per liter. 1gallon=3.78 liter so 3.78*24=90.72.

I would never buy one .A 1 l engine with a Turbo,not for me.Poor engine vipped to death by a turbo ?
Yea that's what i thought until i drove a 1.0 ecoboost Fiesta and i own one 😂poor engine still goes off like a rocket and has 135.000km on it with only the turbo being swapped once
25,000 plus tax and delivery and its at leasts 27,000 for 3cly its a rip off .CHEEP,t his country is to big for three cilinder cars, They will fail, as a FAD
I hate their vibration and sound
Cylinder and all combustion engines are obsolete.
Long live electric motors. Nikola Tesla said it best;
"The present belongs to you. The future is mine".
What a visionary genius...!
Ok
Yep. But electric motors also have some shortcomings, like they run out of Torque at higher RPM(s). Or require insane cooling systems (yep, more insane than combustion engines).
NO electric motors have their problems to overheat explode leak or run shortages
There's many ways to power them though whether it be nuclear hydrogen fuel cells lithium or solar panels
But gas is more cheaper all gone is the era of strong gas diesel engines
I think the v10 naturally aspirated is UNMATCHED
@@ravenclawgamer6367 correct!!!
Unless they allow a nuclear battery which virtually never needs charging, Electric remains stagnant Combustion engines are the future V8 V10 V12 with green hydrogen. Tesla hasn't done anything special and battery tech is still the same electric motors are the same as old 1930s and I believe he just used "aaa" joined together to make the battery packs.
3 Cylinder Radial Engines are the best if looking for a ‘triple’.
