    The document discusses the pros and cons of the 3-cylinder engine used in the Mahindra NuvoSports SUV. It notes that while 3-cylinder engines are more fuel efficient and compact, they are less smooth than 4-cylinder engines. Specifically, in a 3-cylinder engine there is only one power stroke every 120 degrees of crankshaft rotation compared to every 90 degrees in a 4-cylinder engine. This can lead to more vibrations at lower speeds and an increased risk of stalling if not given enough throttle input. As a result, a 3-cylinder engine needs to be revved higher to generate the same power as an equivalent 4-cylinder engine.

    TASK-B-1

    Mahindra SUV NuvoSports:

    NuvoSports packs with new features like AMT, Eco/Power Mode, etc. still I feel the 3-Cylinder Engine used
    is the down side of this Vehicle. Even though 3-cylinder Engines are more fuel efficient, have lower
    frictional losses, lighter in weight and compact in size.

    Still 4-cylinder engine is much smoother, because in 3-cylinder engine Power Stroke happens after every
    120degree rotation of crank-shaft (i.e. 1 rot. of CRS = 3 Power Stroke) while in 4-Cylinder Engine it happens
    with every 90degree rotation of crank-shaft (i.e. 1 rot. of CRS = 4 Power Stroke). During the time when no
    power stroke or firing is taking place in 3-cylinder Engine it moves only on the momentum generated by
    the flywheel connected to the crankshaft, at lower speed this can lead to more vibrations and if not
    enough input is given it can also Stall. So, for better power a 3-cylinder engine will needs to be Revved to
    higher rpms than 4-cylinder engine of equal capacity.
