Does a 2000cc engine consume more fuel than 1500cc engine?

Generally, yes, a 2000cc engine will consume more fuel than a 1500cc engine, all other factors being equal. The larger engine displacement means it has a larger potential to burn more fuel.

However, this is a simplification. Fuel consumption depends on many factors *besides* engine size, including:

* Engine design and technology: A modern, efficient 2000cc engine might be more fuel-efficient than an older, less efficient 1500cc engine.

* Driving style: Aggressive acceleration and high speeds will increase fuel consumption regardless of engine size.

* Vehicle weight: A heavier vehicle will require more power and therefore more fuel, regardless of engine size.

* Aerodynamics: A more aerodynamic vehicle will use less fuel.

* Transmission type: Automatic transmissions generally consume slightly more fuel than manuals.

* Load: Carrying heavy cargo will increase fuel consumption.

So while a 2000cc engine *has the potential* to consume more fuel, it's not a guaranteed outcome. You can't make a definitive statement without knowing the specifics of both engines and the vehicles they're in.
