Well as an example, 1000cm^3 two cylinder motorcycle engines tend to produce more torque earlier in the rev range than 1000cm^3 four cylinder. Given the restrictor formula "forces" engines to be "low reving engines with lots of torque down low" there is a similarity in the power delivery i'd say, if the displacement per cylinder really does make a difference under current rules is another matter.Quote:

The Fiesta ST switched to a 3-cylinder 1.5 engine with the Mk8 and it makes more power than the old 1.6. It's also used in the Fiesta Rally3 so it's clearly been found to be a good configuration.
Or... they had to use it for homologation purposes...Quote:

Tricky to read too much into it because of conditions/tyre choices etc but the winning margins on some stages were quite large. From the videos i saw Gryazin looked pretty comfortable with the car already despite just one day testing. Results here:
