Scuderi Group Unveils Cutaway Model of First Production Prototype of Split Cycle Engine

Green Car Congress

Subsequent implementation of the Split Cycle will be a turbocharged split cycle unit, an air hybrid version of the engine, and a diesel-fueled version. The one-liter, naturally-aspirated gasoline prototype is expected to produce up to 80% fewer criteria pollutants than a typical internal combustion engine. Sal Scuderi.
