The ICCT team—John German and Aaron Isenstadt—concluded that diesels have and will retain two significant advantages over gasoline engines: significantly better fuel economy and cargo hauling and towing ability. Meeting the 2025 standard will require an average improvement in fuel economy of about 4.1% Background.

Comparison of Fuel Consumption, Fun to Drive and System Cost of the different powertrain concepts. However, the system cost of the Turbohybrid was 150% that of the baseline, while the system cost of the full hybrid was more than 300% that of the baseline.

Among the findings were: Adopting the full combination of improved technologies in medium and large cars and pickup trucks with spark-ignition engines could reduce fuel consumption by 29% at an additional cost of $2,200 to the consumer. For example, the report notes the promise of cylinder deactivation, turbocharging and downsizing.

General project targets were to deliver diesel-like or better fuel economy using E10 gasoline (RON91), and to achieve low engine-out NO x and PM using low temperature combustion, the intention being to avoid the cost of aftertreatment for NO x and PM, in addition to meeting more stringent standards. DOE UFEV program targets.
