no it doesn't considering that to travel faster you need to make more rpm's which means the engine has to work harder and burn up more fuel. (every revolution it burns a bit of petrol, more revolutions is burning more petrol) of course the test isn't valid if you use completely different types of motors but two identical engines one working harder burns up more fuel
