Imperfect engine displacement & power figures in vehicles
Emvi recently shared this with other BHPians. I have always been curious to know why are engine displacement and power output figures not a "perfect" number in automobiles!? Elaborating a bit further, when I say "perfect" I mean, from a 100cc bike to a 7.0L engined truck, neither the bike's engine is perfectly 100cc nor the truck's engine displacement is exactly 7.0L and so is the case for all the vehicles with various engine capacities. In addition to this, the power output figures throw quite interesting numbers too. It is understandable that on occasions, manufacturers deliberately design ...
