Engine Efficiency
Engine efficiency refers to how well an engine converts fuel into useful work or movement. It is measured as the ratio of useful energy output to the energy input from fuel. Higher efficiency means more of the fuel's energy is used to power the vehicle, while less is wasted as heat or noise. For example, an efficient engine travels farther on the same amount of fuel compared to a less efficient one. Improving engine efficiency is important for reducing fuel costs, minimizing environmental impact, and enhancing overall performance.
