This is the largest motorcycle in the world

Many car enthusiasts often become quite sad about downsizing engines. Where we would prefer not to settle for less than eight cylinders, the reality is that it is becoming increasingly difficult to have a large engine in your engine. Something with emissions and BPM. Of course, an engine can still be big in 2021. Just look at the company WinGD. They make the RT-flex96C, the largest motorcycle in the world. .

How big is that?

Think big. No, a lot bigger. You probably aren’t thinking big enough yet. The largest engine in the world weighs 2,300 tons and is 26.6 meters long. The fourteen cylinders each have a diameter of 96 centimeters and are 250 centimeters deep. So you can literally disappear in one of the cylinders of these mega engines. With these gigantic dimensions, the oversized diesel produces 114,800 hp.

You will not find this diesel engine in a Toyota Aygo. The RT-flex96C powers ultra-large container ships with a capacity of 16,000 containers. The fourteen-in-line diesel engine ensures that the container ships can reach a speed of 27 knots, approximately 50 km/h. Due to its enormous size, the engine does not go beyond 120 revolutions per minute. Although you won’t have to compete to see who can sprint away from the lock the fastest.

The engine is certainly not economical. In one day, the RT swallows 250 tons of heavy fuel oil. For a distance of 1,200 kilometers, the engine likes 300,000 liters. That’s 250 liters per kilometer of probably the filthiest kid there is. That is not surprising when you consider that each cylinder has a capacity of 1828.7 liters. With the high fuel prices of the moment, you better look for a 2JZ or an LS to put in your car.

This is how the largest engine in the world is put together
