Hey everyone, I'm curious about the fuel consumption differences between 4-cylinder and 6-cylinder engines. Can anyone share their experiences or knowledge on this topic? I'm looking to understand the exact difference in their fuel consumption. Also, which one is easier to maintain and fix? Thanks in advance!

4 cylinder is more fuel efficient than 6 cylinder , especially in the regime of 610 per liter.A 6 cylinder engine has 6 spark plugs and 6 cylinders, which makes it to consume more fuel than 4 cylinder engine with 4 spark plugs and 4 cylinders. But there are some 4 cylinder engine that are almost as powerful as 6 cylinder engine. This is because it is turbo charged and example of such engines are FSI and TSI produced by Germany.
