2.0L motor 2,400 RPM / 1.8L motor 1,900 RPM. why is the bigger motor reving more?

Asked by WolfBenW Jul 18, 2019 at 07:23 PM about the 2014 Hyundai Elantra GT FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I'm wondering if my car has a problem or if this issue is completely normal,
hoping that someone can help.   I Have two cars...  1- 2016 Elantra SE 1.8L    
at 100km/h, RPM's run at 1,900.     2- 2014 Elantra GT 2.0L  at 100km/h,
RPM's run at 2,400,   Is there an issue with car number 2,  or is this normal?
Why are my rpm's so much higher with a bigger motor, shouldn't it be easier
to cruise the highway with a larger motor?
