variant but with fuel economy of a strong hybrid. HyBoost achieves this by combining aggressive 50% downsizing of the engine with an electric supercharger for transient low-speed performance, and a micro-hybrid stop-start and energy recuperation systems, Boggs said.

Reducing engine-out emissions cuts tailpipe emissions in the crucial period before catalyst light-off and reduces the need for costly aftertreatment systems. The industry has long recognized that increasing injection pressure to 500+ bar could substantially cut engine-out particulates while improving CO2 emissions and fuel economy.

Based on the results of the study, CAR believes the economic risk to the auto industry connected to mandating permanent fuel economy standards in the long run is “ very serious ” The group recommends periodic review to assess the rate of technology development and cost reduction of advanced technologies leading up to 2025.

The upside of gasoline direct injection (GDI) engines is widely seen as being improved fuel economy coupled with an increase in specific power (especially with turbocharging), enabling significant downsizing. They assumed a baseline fuel economy of 21.4 They assumed a baseline fuel economy of 21.4 Click to enlarge.

The technical and macro-economic study, commissioned by the European Climate Foundation, focuses on light-duty vehicles. This derives from the fact that most of the money spent on fuel leaves the European economy, while most additional money spent on fuel-saving technology remains in Europe as revenues for the technology suppliers.

For example, the iron demand is less because the share of steel is less, while the bauxite demand increases because of the higher light alloy share. Fuel-economy rear axle differential with tapered roller bearings with reduced power loss and low-friction oil. The start/stop system as standard for all engine variants.

A bridging option is to use methanol derived from natural gas, with a CO2 intensity that is no worse than conventional fuels. There is also the possibility of achieving greenhouse gas reduction by CO2 sequestration in the methanol generation process. Performance of methanol FFVs—i.e., Earlier post.).
