@@xavir9178 and yet my honda V6 outlasted my 2001 3 series I6 by double......

@@Spiritcr1jsher obviously depends on the motor etc, like compare the old nsx v6 with the 2jz block, the 2j will come out on top anyday so yeah

@@xavir9178 I'm a big honda/ford guy and I will admit that nsx motor is pure caca . I sold toyota and acura years ago and Toyota was big on over- engineering their cars in the past .

@Christopher you are correct. Some of the most efficient 6 cylinder engines are V6 . I6 was good when a 1995 m3 had one with 240hp and when the 3.2 got 333hp but it always came at a price . The 333hp m3 got like 22mpg on the highway when a supercharged 2003 svt cobra with a 4.6L v8 with 390hp and 390tq got 24mpg .

That's a very different beast though, lol.

VR6

SVX?

Boxers/flats have head gasket issues these dont so thats a huge hit in reliability

@@BobTheStrangeMan W6.

Too specific

W12 is basically two V6 engines placed side to side. a V12 is two V6 engines welded in front of each other. W12 engines are crazy complex, heavy and unreliable when compared to a simpler, and more efficient V12

Or v8 vs w8

@@GTChucker86 dude a w12 is not 2 engines. The w refers to the positioning of the cylinders. Which are in a zig zag pattern. ITS A SOLID BLOCK. The v12 is in a straight line 6 cylinders on each side of the block.

V16 vs w16

scott steibel how many miles?

I work on fleet trucks daily.. almost all are inline

Yep, I'm a truck driver and every tractor I've driven is powered by an Inline 6

Question to all three of you then; is that because they are easier to work on as you can access the 'entire' (more or less) engine on the side of the road?

@@Anarchristian_Beanz I6's are have alot more durability and torque over their V6 cousins.....as for ease of maintance, that is a debatable question which depends on the engine's size, weight, engine manufacture and vehicle it is installed in.

inline six can be enlarged as much as you want and still run smooth, also, in a big rig, size and weight are not a concern, and since you can extend the stroke for more low end torque which is what big rigs are all about, you have a winner...

The 140 CU IN (2.3L Corvair) did pretty good too. 110 Hp, 140 Hp and turbo 180 HP. Needed high octane gasoline but would go a long way on a gallon. Not bad for a 60+ year old design. Honda even made a motor cycle with one.

john jay sounds like somebody got walked by a vr6 lol

@john jay Flat 4 baby.

john jay are you a kid Unless it’s a joke that’s ok

Well, the video is about straight 6 and V6 engines, not flat 6 or VR6 engines... So no😂

In-line 6 longitudinal components may be more prone to flexing tho

@@chinadonconan6933 That is especially true with the in-line 8 engines that were around from the 1930s until the 1950s. Eight cylinders in a row were much too long to be a practical, long-running design.

It's size means you can't put it in just about any car. Size can be important.

@@KevGoesRiding not quite. Boxers and flat 6 are not conected the same way to the crankshaft

No

Here

theyre all busy fixing their garbage engines

I believe it has to do with the firing order, the primary forces. I'm not sure, however.

I6 motors also are less safe for vehicle collisions. Having a shorter V6 means a greater crush space is available at the front of the car.

@Soldado de Juan José Torres small Inline 4's (i.e. below 2 liters) don't have as much of a problem, but bigger inline 4's (there are 5 litre 4's, albeit diesels, in medium duty trucks) need countershafts to even vibrations

@Dickhead Bear I disagree with weak crankshafts as someone who drives a 13L L6 powered semi for a living Weight distribution and engine weight are the only downsides. They are outweighed by the pluses in applicable applications (good torque, hence truck use; and naturally balanced)

@Dickhead Bear and almost all V6's need balance shafts, or they run like shit, like the original Buick 225 V6

#Jeeplife #brokeaf 🤣🤣

HP per liter wasn't good. Durability only on par with Japanese. Nothing spectacular. For the fuel they use they're kind of lame. Good not great.

Vegan Cyclist I agree with all of your points except I think it’s just slightly more reliable than Japanese motors, I’ve heard the Jeep 6 cylinders last to well over 350,000 miles. But you do have good points.

Vegan Cyclist plus, you can get lots of horse power for cheap. You can turn the 4.0 into a 4.9 stroker motor for less than $3500 that creates 400+ horse power and 450 ft-lbs of torque. Pretty cool stuff. But fucking scary in a Jeep lol.

3500 is enough money to turn a MK2 VW into a 12 second car. The problem with jeeps is the rest of the truck. They're fun but for that kind of fuel cost you might aswell drive a diesel. If they had put turbos on them, it would have been something special. I do like the transfer cases. They're good.

225 Slant Six or Death

Until you do some research and come to terms with the fact that the 2jzgte engine produces better HP figures and drag times (im not talking about stock so dont bring that into it)

I drive a 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix GT with 250k miles on it and it still runs pretty good. That engine is bullet-proof. I plan on getting everything right and running it 'till the wheels fall off. Lol

Maybe because it was a Buick 350 V8 neutered to V6. Sure boost woke them up but it was still a low revving OHV 90 degree V6, heavy too.

Ah yes, the old Commodore V6. What a heap of dung that was! I remember back in 2002-03 the supercharged 3800 (4 speed auto only) was slaughtered by the NA Ford in-line six...let’s not even mention the Ford turbo six!

Come to Europe and you'll see that the smog that our cars produce is so little (pretty much at max rpm the engine is spewing out the amount of soot the V8 is spewing while idling probably) compared to the 7 liter V8 whatever truck engine it is(Another trend I don't get in America is why do you need a truck that is like 4 tons and uses 5 times the amount of fuel a normal car would? Or the V8? What's the point of having that many cylinders?

@@tassiedingo damn....im confused

@@mrworldetika5521 yep, its strange.

The VR6 is such a beast of a motor. Im sad to see it's not even mentioned. Its designed as an inline-v6. One cylinder head but each "bank" of cylinders are separated by 15 degrees. 6 cylinder power for the size a hair bigger than a 4 cylinder. Plus the sound they make is amazing, like chewbaccas growl. It was initially designed to be a diesel so VW manufactured them with forged internals so a bone stock motor is good for 700 whp the trans will go before the motor. It's a popular platform for drag racing cause you can make stupid power with them.

They should've included this in the mix

honestly needs its own segment but i agree should have been mentioned
