Mitsubishi, Honda, Mazda's engine, which one is better? These three car companies are all Japanese car brands that are well-known for their engine Ru0026D level, so who has the better engine level? In fact, today in 2021, Mitsubishi has fallen behind.

Mitsubishi: The Declining King

How brilliant the Mitsubishi engine once was, how lonely it is now. Mitsubishi, which once built the first Japanese engine, can be described as a representative of the Japanese automobile industry. From the sixth to the ninth generation, the EVO is unmatched in the rally field. The magic machine 4G63 can easily break through 1000 horsepower. Choosing a four-wheel drive is also very good in the off-road circle. Mitsubishi engines have also supported half of the domestically-produced cars, and there are still self-owned brand models that use Mitsubishi's 4G63 engines.


Although many people still believe that Mitsubishi’s engine has a low failure rate and strong In terms of economy, let alone compared with Honda Mazda, even compared with some independent brands, it has gradually lost its advantages. The famous 4G63 engine we are talking about actually refers to the red head version, which is an overhead dual camshaft, four-cylinder 16-valve turbocharged version, while the 4G63 engine used in domestic models is a single overhead camshaft self-priming The design of the two is completely two engines.


Mitsubishi’s current mainstream engine is the 4J series, the power level is already quite weak, and the latest 4840 series 1.5T engine, regardless of Is it 125 kilowatts of power, 250 Nm of torque, or 2000-3500 rpm torque platform, which is far from the current advanced level. Once the Japanese engine king, now it has gradually degenerated into a mediocre car company. After being acquired by Nissan, Mitsubishi's technology was further diluted and absorbed, eventually disappearing.

Honda: Buy the engine and get the car

Honda has always been jokingly called by car fans as a brand that buys the engine and gives the car. Although during the period of self-suction turbocharging, Honda appeared Quality problems such as engine throttle and stall door can be said to be pains in the transformation process. From the perspective of engine level, Honda is undoubtedly still very strong.


In fact, Honda has a lot of glorious history in the engine field. Honda’s RA167E engine can be said to be a small displacement turbocharged. The pinnacle of the game, the displacement is only 1.5, but it can squeeze the power of 1,050 horses and win three Grand Prix titles until it is revised by F1. Honda’s famous red-head machine K20A has a displacement of 2.0L, a maximum horsepower of 220ps, a maximum torque of 196 Nm, a maximum speed of 8600 rpm, and is equipped with Honda’s characteristic I-VTEC technology. It is still being talked about by many car fans.

In the field of household cars, Honda’s 2.0L self-priming engine and 2.4L engine are used in Accord, CRV and other models. This is an important reason why these models can become classic models because these two engines are stable, It is fuel-efficient and has a very low failure rate. However, under the pressure of strict emission policy, Honda began to turn to small-displacement turbocharged engines. In order to make a 1.5T engine reach the power level of 1.8T engine, Honda has carried out a cruel squeeze on the extreme performance of the engine. This has also brought a lot of negative effects, that is, we have seen problems such as the stall door and the throttle.


But after the storm, we also have to admit that Honda’s Earth Dream 1.5T engine is currently in the field of civilian engines. One of the best engines that takes both fuel economy and power into consideration. It can not only push the Accord to complete zero-hundred acceleration in about 8 seconds, but also allow the owners of this car to control the fuel consumption to less than 8 liters, which is very eye-catching. The results.

Mazda: Excellent drivability

In fact, the most prominent advantage of Mazda is not how advanced the engine technology is, but the drivability is quite good. In short, this The car's engine and gearbox, as well as the chassis, steering wheel and other components are matched very well, so Honda and Mazda are completely in two different directions.


What Honda is doing is to constantly squeeze the extreme power performance of an engine, and also to achieve excellent fuel economy , So Honda is more like a parametric party. Mazda is an experiential school. Everything is experience-centric, including Mazda's insistence on being a self-priming engine. It also starts from experience. The self-priming engine is commanded from the ECU until the throttle is fully opened and the maximum torque is only 200 milliseconds. Turbocharged The engine takes more than 1.5 seconds, so Mazda models can achieve very good ride comfort and dynamic response with the cooperation of the engine and the gearbox.

Of course, from the engine itself, Mazda is not weak. Although the power performance is not as good as Honda, the fuel economy of the engine is still excellent, and Mazda also has a 2.5T turbocharged engine. It's just not introduced to the country. But in the final analysis, Mazda is only a small factory, and it is certainly difficult to compete with large manufacturers in terms of technical comprehensiveness. Honda's internal combustion engine technology covers two-wheel, four-wheel, aviation, marine and general-purpose fields. It has participated in many events such as F1 and WTCC. More can only focus on some small and beautiful areas.


Therefore, if you want to compare the engine technology of Mitsubishi, Honda and Mazda, Honda is still better at present, and everyone is welcome to join us. Discuss this issue.
