Reductions in fuel consumption and CO 2 from base 2.0-liter liter ELC-Hybrid to downsized 1.4L VTES + SpeedStart. In combination with the VTES electric supercharger, this will create a cost effective micro/mild hybrid system which, when applied to a downsized 1.4-liter Click to enlarge. —Guy Morris.

Comparison of Fuel Consumption, Fun to Drive and System Cost of the different powertrain concepts. Downsizing a gasoline engine (e.g., with the use of turbocharged GDI) and downspeeding can result in a significant increase in fuel efficiency, but with a negative impact on traction force reserve and driveability.
