As an external combustion engine, it can be powered by a wide range of liquid and gaseous fuels. Slowly decompressing the gases would waste less of that energy and make for a much quieter engine. Complete combustion of fuels results in low emissions which are not adversely affected by sulfur-containing fuels. —Timothy Shedd.

In this paper PHEV refers solely to the long-range PHEV of 60 miles (100 km) electric-only range.) The PHEV does not require the heavy, costly batteries required by other electric cars, nor does it suffer from a limited range or poor freeway performance. It offers a range of elegant solutions to a number of problems.
