Simply picking a smaller engine may not lead to an actual improvement to fuel-efficiency

Some of those Chinese mini trucks, for example, are usually fitted with copies of the Suzuki-designed G13A engine, and their fuel consumption is in pair with larger vehicles, since some lower gearing is required in order to cope with a similar payload.
