Further standards such as LV-148 as defined by the Verband der Automobilindustrie (VDA) are providing further structure to the 48V nominal voltage approach, which allows high power energy recuperation without exceeding 60V. The exhaust gas can reach temperatures greater than 900 °C, whereas the turbine upper functional limit is 850 °C.

While policies worldwide are tightening emissions and fuel economy standards, the strictest standard of all is expected in Europe in 2020, Bohr said—average fleet CO 2 emissions of 95 grams per kilometer. This will be done with a broad range of efficiency-enhancing technologies, including the turbocharging of downsized engines.

Hyundai Motor is showcasing two new turbocharged gasoline direct injected (T-GDI) engines at the Paris Motor Show 2014. To keep the engine unit as small as possible, the exhaust manifold is integrated within the cylinder head and can therefore be cooled efficiently using the cylinder head water cooling system.

The total technology cost increment would be between €1,000 and €2,150 [(2014€)], and the fuel cost savings would be on the order of €450 per year. These individual class curves are then sales weighted to estimate fleet average compliance costs for a range of potential CO 2 standards. Peter Mock, Managing Director of ICCT Europe.

Turbocharging and downsizing can also yield fuel consumption reductions. Downsizing is an important strategy applicable in combination with technologies that increase engine torque, such as turbocharging or supercharging. Part of the gain from advanced-level CI diesel engines comes from downsizing.

Although real-world fuel economy improvements from GDI technology alone are close to 1.5%, they can reach 8% by downsizing and turbocharging the engine, which can be achieved on GDI engines without loss of power compared to PFI engines. All the vehicles were tested using commercial gasoline that met the summertime California fuel standards.
