A number of details throughout the hybrid powertrain contribute to its efficiency, including an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system with a cooler; a smaller, lighter, quieter hybrid system water pump, and an exhaust heat recirculation system that speeds engine warm-up. 1, yet runs on regular-grade gasoline.

When at the dealer, make sure to lift the hood and get a look at the beautiful Trofeo carbon fiber red and black engine cover, which by far is the most attractive we have seen. One of the most annoying thing about cars that pretend to be a sports sedan, but really aren’t, is their faux or overpowering exhaust note.

There isn’t a wiper on the rear glass, so maybe BMW has developed an aerodynamic way to dispense water and snow. The vertical, quad exhaust ports sit in the lower fascia that is designed with ground effect channels. The narrow LED tail lights that wrap the fenders are black when not in use, then reveal a bright, deep red when lit.

Below it, the exhaust manifold is integrated into the cylinder head—a key element of efficient thermal management. Emissions stay low due to high- and low-pressure exhaust-gas recirculation and multi-stage exhaust-gas aftertreatment including an SCR system (selective catalytic reduction). Click to enlarge.

Furthermore, their single-scroll design allows for more efficient collection of exhaust as it escapes from within the cylinders. Intake and exhaust variable cam timing (VTC) is deployed to provide an excellent balance of high power, torque, fuel economy, and emissions. The front floor panels are constructed of carbon fiber core.

Because the exhaust gases form part of the active aerodynamic package, Jaguar has utilized a specialized zirconia-molybdenum coating. This advanced heat-resistant coating is regularly used in Formula One cars and is applied in a plasma spray to the carbon-fiber diffuser to protect it from the exhaust gases.

The fueling process is fast and easy and a FCEV operates exactly like a gasoline-powered car, but with no noise, exhaust fumes or emissions. The by-product of this chemical reaction is water vapor that harmlessly drips from the tailpipe, making the Mirai a zero-emission vehicle. No plugging in to an electrical outlet.

The protons migrate through the membrane to the cathode, where they react with the oxygen present in air to form water vapor. Because the exhaust system only has to handle water vapor, it is made of weight-saving plastic. An outer skin made from carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) encases the inner aluminum shell.

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. Water delivery provides a useful analogy for electricity and the way it works.
