This means that in addition the power demand is more difficult to achieve with engine downsizing and transmission down-speeding alone. The WLTP is significantly more dynamic with faster acceleration rates. —Paul Bloore, product validation manager for CPT’s hybrid product group. Click to enlarge. The conference. Earlier post.).

Due to the lower exhaust enthalpy of lower temperature engines using PPCI, it is difficult to produce intake boost with acceptable boost system parasitis. A practical powertrain system with robust PPCI combustion is needed, including injection, valvetrain, boost, and exhaust subsystems. —Sellnau et al. kWh and FSN 0.1,

Automakers are finding it difficult to challenge those boldface numbers with internal combustion alone, especially as engines are relentlessly downsized to meet regulations. A jaw-dropping weight-to-power ratio of 1.57 kg/hp tips the scale in Ferrari’s favor: It’s a new record for any volume-production supercar. And don’t forget sound.

The alternative-fuel car evolved to reduce exhaust emissions and other problems derived from burning fossil fuels. In fact, the optimized PHEV is much more efficient as a long range liquid fuel vehicle, because the engine is downsized. The BMW-i3 and the Renault Kangoo are examples. by Professor Andrew Alfonso Frank.
