As a reduced cost concept, it aims to make more intelligent use of electrical energy to achieve the desired reduction in fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. The exhaust gas can reach temperatures greater than 900 °C, whereas the turbine upper functional limit is 850 °C. Rick Quinn, senior manager for advanced engineering.

RegEnBoost integrates the three devices into a powertrain electrical power network (PEPN), which also incorporates a DC to DC converter and an enhanced lead acid battery, optimized for fast energy storage and release. A final key element of the RegEnBoost concept is the TIGERS turbo-generator. liters capacity.
