liter TSI engine in the new VW Tiguan and the Audi A5 in June 2017. This will reduce particulate emissions from the direct injection gasoline engines by up to 90%. Although gasoline direct injection (GDI) enables downsizing with its increased power and lower fuel consumption, it also results in higher particulate emissions.

The electric compressor fits in well and without any constraints with the proven strategy of downsizing, the company said. Other areas of emphasis in the development work were to reduce the mass inertia of the rotating parts in order to shorten response time, and to comply with set limits for noise emissions and electromagnetic compatibility.

One of the issues for the industry to confront in moving away from the NEDC test is that the WLTP typically halves the measurement of CO 2 reduction gained from first generation stop-start systems, which characteristically reduce CO 2 emissions on the NEDC by 5%. This reduces to 2.5% when measuring the same vehicle on the WLTP.
