The use of a supercritical fuel charge enables very fast and complete combustion with minimized thermal losses. The TSCi charge is nearly invisible to the eye. The supercritical charge facilitates short ignition delay and fast combustion, with the energy released focused just on pushing the piston down. Source: Transonic.

For comparison, the base Polestar 2 Dual Motor is rated at 4.2 Both measurements are best used to compare EVs as the actual miles you will get from a kWh of battery varies greatly based on the speed you’re traveling, the temperature and the style of driving. These are the estimated times for the three charging speeds.

l/100 km (39 mpg US) with 158 g CO 2 /km) and has a range of up to 1,500 kilometers (932 miles) when equipped with an optional larger tank (93 liters vs. the standard 70 liters, the latter good for 1,150 km or 715 miles). This means that the optimum charge pressure can be built up at low engine revs. Earlier post.)

L/100km (46 mpg US) (provisional NEDC combined figure), equivalent to 135 g CO 2 /km. The HP turbine housing features an integral bypass duct, which can be opened or closed by means of a charge-pressure control flap triggered by a vacuum cell. This means that the optimum charge pressure can be built up at low engine revs.

The four-door sedan will deliver 40 miles on a charge; a small gasoline engine will recharge the battery as it approaches depletion, extending its range by as much as 200 miles. It offers 18 models that deliver 30 mpg or more. That way you have a fair basis of comparison, you know, apples to apples and all that jazz.
