thanks ashu!!! i will have to look in to it!! because i hav seperated from logan department!!! but ........still there is no signs of renault releasing a new car!!! i will tell u whats my personal view!! i think renault people dont take indian market too seriously!!! i also dont like there marketing strategies!!! i know these cars are good but not the best!! because the logan i tested was a 16valve 1.6ltr petrol engine and they brought 8 valve engine in india why??????????? i dont know !!! there is a huge diffrence in 8 and 16 valve engine regarding pick up milage and all!! 16 valve would defeat skodA and jetta and city very very easily!!!

So, does that mean, the marketing in India is handled by Renault?

Also, was the 16v's mileage better than the 8v?

yes surely over all the efficiency increases yaar!!!
thanks martin!! bsfc chart have been given martin!!!

Umm... Stu has posted the torque/power charts which are readily available and I have already seen these ....

BSFC is Brake Specific Fuel Consumption ... which shows much more information

eg.




In these example you se that there is a sweet spot (250) which is where there is optimal engine efficiency.

Anybody got the power & torque curve for 1.5 Diesel?

hey come on guys these are not logan's !!! at least the charts posted my tomlai!!!

You are right a Saturn 19 L is not a Logan its this

TRY THIS
1,6-litre eight-valve unit that develops 64 kW.

Obviously I wouldn't be asking for the LOGAN BSFC chart if I have it already.

What I was trying to do was show what a sample BSFC Chart will look like. Much like a geography topo map with contours. Each contour representing a given mileage figure

Anyway why bother its just a Normal car not some high performenced lean mean machine

Hey guys,

Can some one also explain all these hi-tech charts for a layman like me.

Would be grateful indeed.

hey there are two concept related whith any moving means rotating body!!
1)with what speed is it rotating and
2)how is it rotating!!!
so u have observed for and thing to rotate u need to give some force to it!!
example when u rotate a stand in a shopping mall to see diffrent shirts ,
hope u got it and another thing is by how much angle u wanna it to be turned so u decide the force give accordingly . its the same funda
on the x axis there is engine rmp and on y axis is the torque (force required for starting the rotation and power (means measurement of the output ur getting consider that rotating stand is connected to some another stand by using a gear of belt drive!and u are measuring how much rotation that another stand is rotating when u rotate this first stand ) thats power out put hope u got it!!!
