Why do diesels make so much torque?
Diesel engines are turbocharged to make for the lack of horsepower. It increases the amount of air entering the engine meaning more compression inside the engine. This creates higher pressure in the cylinders, which in turn increase the torque.
Is 500 Nm a lot of torque?
It’s worth noting that engines producing much more than 400 Nm (295 lb/ft) of torque, whether petrol or diesel, are usually at their best teamed with an automatic gearbox. Beyond 500 Nm (369 lb/ft), most engines come with an automatic gearbox anyway since they’re better able to cope with an engine that strong.
What is 5nM torque?
5nM is approximately 45 in/lbs (inch pounds) or 3 ft/lb (foot pounds). VERY LITTLE TORQUE!
