The SuperTruck powertrain includes a complex Rankine waste-heat recovery system, which converts heat normally wasted in exhaust into torque, boosting fuel economy by helping to power the vehicle. (This new design added “wave” bumps on the side of the piston bowl, which allows the fuel to burn more cleanly.).
