The global market for sensors used in internal combustion engines (ICE) is on the road of steady growth for the next few years, propelled by increasing utilization in engine management and exhaust aftertreatment, according to a new report from IHS Technology. However, European legislators have also become tougher on this gas in recent years.

The K6 engine uses six strokes instead of four to reduce the pressure of exhaust gases, which allows it to harvest more energy rather than expelling it with the gas. Shedd says the prototype will allow detailed testing of the engine’s actual capabilities, and bring the technology closer to commercialization.

Ignoring the briefly popular commercial electrics around at the turn of the last century, EVs have been experimental concepts or limited edition runs until relatively recently. Without being exhaustive, let’s take a look at some examples. There is no all-electric or gas-only Prius—that’s not its identity. It debuted in the U.S.
