Our goal is to enable hyper-efficient hybrid vehicles to meet consumer needs for a 500-mile driving range, lower vehicle prices, full-size utility, improved highway performance and very low operating costs. The WDG also can reduce carbon dioxide emissions by as much as 95 percent in comparison to modern internal combustion vehicle engines.

The HPE was long thought to be a system in which all engine valves had to be actuated in a fully variable manner to allow for two-stoke pneumatic modes and still enable the four-stroke combustion mode. However, this setup adds complexity and cost. [In The concept engine uses the Bosch electro-hydraulic valve system (EHVS).

This is a major step toward our goal of building the most efficient engine in the world for trucks, automobiles and power generation. The improvement in efficiency and the use of natural gas makes this engine a natural fit to meet the upcoming greenhouse gas emissions regulations while reducing costs for operators.

TCR is particularly relevant to alcohol-based engine fuels, because combustion exergy losses for direct combustion of alcohols are typically higher than for alkanes and alkenes. Much of the cost associated with removing the water during ethanol production might be avoided if hydrous ethanol could be directly used by engines.
