Too Afraid to Ask

A two‑liter turbo is a small engine that uses a turbocharger to make it more powerful. The turbo squeezes extra air into the engine so it can burn more fuel and produce more speed.

Technical Definition

A two-liter turbo refers to a 2.0‑liter displacement engine equipped with a turbocharger, which forces more air into the combustion chamber to increase power output.
