There's no V4 engine option in the Honda range.

He meant to say I4, or 4 Cylinders, in-line, and I think you know so.

@OP, the V6 of the Honda Babyboy will give all you desire in a V6, particularly more power and performance.

However, you should know that when compared to the I4s of the Baby Boy Series (Honda Accord 1998 - 2002), the V6s are more notorious for automatic transmission failures.

The V6 will also have less fuel economy, all other variables being equal.

I sense aggression here.

How can you state I know what the OP meant? Assumption is the mother of all f-ups. When it comes to automobile mechanicals / electronics, it's best NOT to assume, rather it's best to seek clarification.

Which is what I did.

No aggression bro, you have only assumed so.

I got your point, though.

I just ''sensed'' you knew what info the OP sought, even as he had used the wrong but 'popular' nomenclature.

Since you don't know, V4 engines DO exist So if a query is posted regarding a V4 engine, I will ask for clarification. Especially if the query is from Nigeria, where different engines find their way into the most unlikely of vehicles.

Omicron knew exactly where I was coming from. Since you don't know, I'd advice you to keep that hole in your mask firmly shut, and perhaps you might learn something!

Mr Omicron, Suwas2003, Siena let the name calling stop please. You people should calm down and let peace reign.


Thanks for your co-operation.

When I'm insulted by someone probably young enough to be my son, I'll respond in the same way. I have no regrets - I get insulted by anyone, I don't turn the other cheek, it's not my way. I take such people apart, piece by piece, now THAT's my way.

And if I get banned, then so be it.

And by the way, Omicron isn't guilty of name calling, he responded like a gentleman

Fuel consumption of the 4 plugs is better than that of v6. V6 is good for long distance journey and gets more power than the i4.

Personally, I would opt for i4.

Lol! I'm definitely not referring to bikes, since the OP specifically mention Honda Accord. I'm aware of the V and V twins in bikes, very different to car engines. wink

LOL. I guess he means more details like fuel economy, life span and (most important of all among Nigerians)cost of repairs.

of course I'm not kidding. The question was what's the difference between a 2.0 v6 and a 3.0 v6. They both have the same no of cylinders (6). Yes there are some 2.0L v6 engines and have been used in Honda legend, mazda mx3 and alfa GTV
