Thanks to this rightsizing approach, the new engine enjoys the consumption benefits of a downsizing engine in partial load operation, while at higher loads it has the advantages of a large-displacement engine. The consistent reduction of friction as well as the use of low-friction engine oil (0W-20) also increases efficiency.
