Choose 2, Power, Emissions or Economy.
- BizarroLand 3y agoWhat vehicle has good power and fuel economy but bad emissions?
- philipkglass 3y agoI think they mean economy as in cost (money). You can make a powerful inexpensive engine but it will have a worse emissions profile, or a powerful expensive engine that has a better emissions profile. But you don't get a powerful, inexpensive engine that also has a good emissions profile.
- rrr_oh_man 3y agoAny 20 year old Volkswagen with a 1.9 TDI Diesel. Excellent engine, but no green emissions sticker in Europe. Lifetime of 500,000km (300k miles) and more if treated right, fuel economy 6.5l/100km (36mpg), and can pull a small trailer with a bit of tuning. You can find it in almost all Volkswagens of the 1995-2005 era, as well as in a bunch of Audis, Seats, etc.
- hulitu 3y ago> Excellent engine If you drive it, yes. But for the driver behind you, blinded by the black smoke, no.
- rrr_oh_man 3y agoThere’s no black smoke. You only get black smoke if there’s unburnt fuel, i.e. not enough air in the mixture
- Sohcahtoa82 3y agoI would probably consider changing "power" to "size". My 2016 Subaru BRZ had 200 horsepower, averaged 32 mpg, and was $26K. Not a bad combo, if you ask me. A decent amount of get-up-and-go when you want it, but decent fuel economy when you don't. But it was also just a small 2-door sports car. Tiny trunk and worthless rear seats.
