Since 2013, the share of premium gasoline in total motor gasoline sales in the US has steadily increased to 11.3% One significant trend is engine downsizing coupled with turbocharging. The octane rating of gasoline is an indicator of its resistance to spontaneous combustion. of new gasoline-fueled LDV sales.

GDCI engine was significantly better than advanced production spark injection gasoline engines, and comparable to very efficient hybrid vehicle engines at their best efficiency conditions (214 g/kWh). This early work established that gasoline-like fuels with high resistance to autoignition are preferred for PPCI. Background.

The original project target was Tier 2 Bin 2 emissions, but in August 2013, it was agreed to shift that to the Tier 3 target—essentially the same with combined NO x and NMOG emissions, but more strict with CO and PM. I4 / 25 bar BMEP; during the concept evaluation in 2010 and 2011, the research team revised the architecture to 2.3L

However, while Mazda plans to offer hybrid vehicles in the medium-term, its engineers are pushing hard to increase the efficiencies of both the gasoline and diesel platforms, moving toward what they call “the ideal Internal Combustion Engine.” Extreme compression ratio rather than downsizing. Although downsizing—i.e.,

As part of an aggressive deployment strategy for improving fuel efficiency across its product line-up in the near-to medium-term, Ford will offer its first-generation turbocharged, gasoline direct-injection EcoBoost engines ( earlier post ) in 90% of its product lineup by 2013. Planning background. ” First-generation EcoBoost.

However, unlike conventional gasoline engines, gasoline direct injection engines produce particulate matter, as do diesels, and emission controls will become an issue the technology must address as standards for particle mass tighten, and also as standards for particle numbers emerge.
