Engine is the heart of the car.
All power is coming from here.
I think because it is the most important part of the car, and trying to introduce.
I bring the rotation gasoline as a fuel, leading to power.
To quote because there was Wikipedia description image very easy to understand.
Most of the engine is made current,
It repeats this four-stroke.

(1)Inhalation fuel the air
(2)Compression fuel the air
(3) Combustion and expansion
(4) Exhaust
This repetition will become more and more quickly,
Is going to accelerate.
Given that it is a unified system and accuracy,
The more piston, the more
The larger the place to mixing fuel and air is greater,
Power will increase.
In the past a little, to say the two-stroke engine,
There was engine of bracketed by two-stroke

Rotating rise which I was earlier cost applied lightweight construction is simple, since it does not completely combust the fuel, has entered the unburned gas is Konji the exhaust gases, harmful substances in the exhaust gas many, bad fuel economy.
So it is not likely to be used in cars that are currently in production.
My name is reciprocating engine the engine has gained power by up-and-down movement of the piston like this.
Most car uses this engine.
There are also a variety of forms.

It is the engine to go side by side in the shape of V alternating piston
Because the total length does not increase even if a lot of the number of cylinders, and is finished in a compact.
However, the structure needs to be the complex width and widely.

It is the engine of the piston boxer feeling each other.Also it is opposed to the reverse motion of such exchange punches.
Because it is a feeling that I was in a horizontal angle of the V of the V-type engine, you may want to lower the center of gravity of the engine.

It is the engine which was made by combining a V-type engine of the two.
It has made only the Volkswagen Group, Bentley and Bugatti, etc. Audi, the world's fastest uses.
It is such as 16-cylinder and 12-cylinder, multi-cylinder.
Width is wider than the V-type with the same number of cylinders for that, but you can to shorten the overall length.
