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. In comparison, naturally aspirated engines have a higher compression ratio in the order of 1 to 1.5 Click to enlarge. Kleeberg, H.,

CO 2 emissions of the C 180 in comparison to its predecessor [t/car]. Over the entire lifecycle of the C 180, the lifecycle analysis yields a primary energy consumption of 521 gigajoules (corresponding to the energy content of around 16,000 liters of gasoline); an environmental input of approx.

The resulting higher BMEP levels allow downsizing of the engine at equivalent vehicle performance. The vehicle owner will realize high fuel economy because gasoline, with its greater eating value per volume, is the fuel that is primarily used for most driving modes.

In comparison, they noted, the technology for bio-chemical ethanol production from cellulosic biomass is not sufficiently developed yet. Methanol first surfaced as a potentially interesting transportation fuel in the wake of the oil crisis in 1973. The toxicity (mortality) is comparable to or better than gasoline.

BCG comparison of the CO 2 reduction potential and cost of different technologies. Assuming the China government remains committed to EVs, BCG expects that these vehicles will represent 7% of new vehicle sales in 2020, supported by car buyers’ enthusiasm for the technology and the country’s high gasoline taxes.
