A report published by Cambridge Econometrics and Ricardo-AEA concludes that overall, the cost of technologies required to meet proposed European 2020 CO 2 regulations for vehicles (95 g/km for cars and 147 g/km for vans) will be more than offset by the resultant fuel savings.

downsized, turbocharged) gasoline engine, as operating an engine with higher compression ratios at low load can increase fuel economy compared to operating an engine with fixed compression ratio. Use of a variable compression ratio (VCR) could be one technology approach to reducing fuel consumption in highly boosted (e.g., Kleeberg, H.,

Naphtha, suggest the researchers who are investigating its use, could prove a useful transportation fuel for several reasons: one, cost and availability; and two, as a useful enabling fuel for advanced combustion regimes. Based on these engine studies, they installed a downsized four-cylinder 1.6-liter
