Researchers at Jilin University (China) have investigated the effect of gasoline components on fuel economy, combustion and emissions in a GDI (gasoline-direct-injection) engine. The team subsequently followed up this first study with a second, exploring the effects in a PFI (port-fuel-injection) engine. —Han et al.

The converted Transporter, which will come in cargo, cab-chassis and passenger versions, will have a 22-mile all-electric range (AER), with fuel economy of 57 mpg based on a 50-mile daily cycle. By way of comparison, the IDEA is designed to have a 30-mile AER with fuel economy of 100 mpg. Fuel economy, 50-mile cycle.

Better efficiency also means better reliability, economy as well as lower emission levels. The high pressure fuel pump of the second generation Duramax engine operates at pressures up to 2,000 bar, enabling increased engine efficiency. Water-cooled turbo. —Nicola Menarini, Global Chief Engineer, GM Powertrain.
