Volkswagen engineers redesigned a large number of the base engine components to improve acoustics, fuel consumption, and exhaust gas emissions. Broadly, there have been two catalytic approaches used to reduce exhaust NO x : urea-based selective catalytic reduction (SCR) and lean NO x trap (LNT) catalysts. Earlier post.)

The first generation Sharan made its debut in Geneva in 1995; between 1995 and 2015 more than 800,000 Sharans were sold worldwide. Using a specially coated diesel particulate filter (the actual SCR catalytic converter), the SCR system converts the nitrogen oxides (NO x ) in the exhaust gas into nitrogen (N 2 ) and water (H 2 O ).

Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles (FCEV) are similar to BEVs in that they have an electric-only powertrain, but they store energy differently. FCEVs store hydrogen gas in a tank rather than charging a battery. Like BEVs, FCEVs’ exhaust produces no smog-forming or climate-changing emissions; the sole result is water.

Audi presented a range of its ongoing work on electromobility and efficiency—from fuels and systems to full vehicles—under the “Future Performance Days 2015” banner. While they store a high amount of energy compared to the other designs, their power output is comparatively low. It can cover more than 500 kilometers (310.7

liter T-GDI engine, which was developed at Hyundai’s European Technical Centre in Rüsselsheim, Germany, is able to produce up to 120 PS (118 hp, 88 kW) and 172 N·m (127 lb-ft) of torque and will enhance the New Generation i20 engine line-up in 2015. Up to 15 kg of gas can be stored in the tank at 200 bar pressure.

The exhaust side shaft features cast iron gears to reverse rotational direction of the exhaust shaft. The engine retains the proven concept of a turbine-integrated exhaust manifold. For durability, it is water-cooled. The VGT and the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) function were developed as a single, complete system.

The alternative-fuel car evolved to reduce exhaust emissions and other problems derived from burning fossil fuels. Furthermore, even the older version PHEV can recharge at a slow rate using local solar, wind, water-derived or other net zero CO 2 fuel. by Professor Andrew Alfonso Frank.
