ok, I think I got it now.

These modern cars such as the Toyota CH-R which are 1.2T's let you drive around in a car that basically is a 1.2 and enjoy fuel efficiency of a 1.2L car instead of the 2.0/2.4 that they should be.

When cruising they are a 1.2 so using that amount of fuel and no more.

When more power is needed, they can get the power of the 2.0 when the boost comes on.
