This will be done with a broad range of efficiency-enhancing technologies, including the turbocharging of downsized engines. Only with turbochargers can engines be downsized, he said, which can potentially offer a 7-8% percent fuel saving. Automating the manual transmission, for example with the eClutch. Rolf Bulander.

The EU has already set a standard for 6 × 10 12 number/km limits between 2014 and 2017, tightening to 6 × 10 11 number/km.). Homogeneous GDI provides fuel efficiency benefits from charge air cooling, more facile turbocharging, and the downsizing that these permit. —Maricq et al. Credit: ACS, Maricq et al.

The EU goal is to introduce the WLTP by 2017 if possible and no later than 2020 to coincide with the 95 g/km requirement. This means that in addition the power demand is more difficult to achieve with engine downsizing and transmission down-speeding alone. the Worldwide harmonized Light vehicles Test Procedures (WLTP).

Kia unveiled three major hybrid offerings at the Chicago Auto Show: the 2017 Niro Hybrid Utility Vehicle; the new Optima Hybrid; and the new Optima Plug-in Hybrid. Because the high-voltage battery is both power and energy dense, engineers were able to use the downsized gasoline engine to maximize fuel economy and reduce emissions.

Thrust 1 builds on the significant amount of work carried out over the past several decades, focused on building advanced boosted, downsized, and downspeeded spark ignition engines. Thrust 2, said Wagner, is facing a decision point in March 2017. So far, we have been very focused on Thrust 1. Earlier post.)

Although real-world fuel economy improvements from GDI technology alone are close to 1.5%, they can reach 8% by downsizing and turbocharging the engine, which can be achieved on GDI engines without loss of power compared to PFI engines. Organic gas emissions were the most sensitive to cold-start compared to the other pollutants tested.

Engine downsizing and down-speeding are well suited to take advantage of higher-octane fuels because these engines encounter the knock limit more frequently. Operation under boosted conditions is essential to Co-Optima’s Thrust I effort to maintain acceptable power density for downsized and downsped SI engines.
