Modelled results of fuel consumption in 2011 Nissan Sentra. At the onset of the study, a computer baseline model of the Sentra was established, which closely matched the measured performance of the actual 2011 Nissan Sentra. Various SSC engine models were sized to match the acceleration and power of the Sentra’s conventional engine.

will exhibit its High Efficiency Combustion System (HECS) diesel engine at the 2011 SAE World Congress, 12-14 April at Cobo Center in Detroit. The second-generation HECS has been adapted to a downsized 1.6L 4-cylinder diesel engine, and is designed specifically for a high specific power output of more than 100 kW/L.

Other technologies—such as efficiency improvements in gasoline engines as well as the rollout of hybrid electric power trains—offer more compelling and cost-effective pathways to reducing CO 2 emissions from European passenger cars, the ICCT says. For instance, hybrid electric vehicles and diesel cars in the small (e.g.,

In the HyBoost project, Ricardo, Ford Motor Company, Control Power Technologies (CPT) and the European Advanced Lead Acid Battery Consortium (EALABC) demonstrated a concept they termed “intelligent electrification”. In 2011, the HyBoost team reported that the HyBoost demonstrator was achieving comparable performance to the conventional 2.0L
