The number of cylinders that make up the engine and the way they are arranged within it. The common forms of arrangement are In-Line, V-Type and Flat engines.
The maximum amount of fuel that the engine can burn in one complete cycle of all the cylinders together.
The amount of work the engine can do over a period of time. It is measured in Horsepower. One Horsepower is equal to the energy needed to lift 550 pounds at a height of one foot for one second. 1 PS=1.01387 bhp
The maximum power output the engine can produce over a particular range of speed.
The system of valves that lets the fuel charges in and lets the exhaust gases out.
The system that delivers fuel to the engine as per its needs.
Diameter of the piston STROKE- distance the piston moves from top to bottom.
Ratio of the volume of cylinder when the piston is at the bottom of its rotation (X), to the volume of the cylinder when it is at the top of its rotation (Y). Mathematically it is expressed as X/Y: 1. It is used to measure performance of the engine.
A compressor used in engine to increase its power output by increasing the mass of air and fuel entering the engine. They offer a considerable increase in engine power with only a slight increase in weight. Turbochargers work better on Diesel engines.
A compressor used to pump fuel-air mixture under pressure into the engine to improve its efficiency and thus increase its output power.
The mechanism by which power is transmitted from the engine to the wheels.Transmission type could be Manual,Automatic, Continuously Variable Transmission, or Semi-Automatic.
This refers to the wheel(s) that are driven by the entire moving part of the car Engine, clutch, transmission, driveshaft, differential, axles, etc.
A device used to reduce the power required to maintain driving speed in a specific range thus helping the vehicle reduce fuel consumption, engine noise and engine wear.
The system of springs, shockers, joints, etc., that connect the vehicle to its wheels. The suspension system helps absorb the shock of bumps on the road and keep the wheels in constant contact with the road, thereby improving control and traction.

Steering type implies how the collection of rod,levers etc. connected to the front wheels of a vehicle, make the vehicle turn in the direction desired by the driver. It is either manually done or power driven.
The mechanism by which the rotary motion of the steering wheel is converted to straight line motion required to move a car.
The diameter of the circle created by the outer front wheel when the vehicle takes a full turn. The lower the Turning Radius the lesser the space the car requires to make a turn.
It is a number that defines the air resistance on the forward movement of the vehicle. The lower the coefficient the smoother is the movement of the car at high speeds.
