Further, the benefits of some technologies are not completely represented in the tests used to estimate corporate average fuel economy (CAFE). Turbocharging and downsizing can also yield fuel consumption reductions. NHTSA also asked that the NRC add to its assessment technologies that have emerged since that report was prepared.

The automotive industry, including Lotus Engineering, has quite rightly advocated engine downsizing for four-stroke engines. Downsizing therefore isn’t vital and, due to the improved light-load efficiency and emissions performance we see with Omnivore, this technology approach and ‘upsizing’ could permit a more efficient engine.

Toyota Motor Corporation has developed a new continuously variable transmission (CVT) featuring a launch gear; a new 6-speed manual transmission; a new 2.0-liter Shift responsiveness has improved through downsizing of the pulley and reduction of inertia by 40%. Both powerful and rhythmic acceleration are realized.

Sources say Suzuki Motor Corporation chairman Osamu Suzuki wasn’t happy paying high license fees to FCA and an eye-watering amount to upgrade the engine to meet BS6 norms. After all, this four-cylinder engine was essentially two Celerio diesel units forged together and downsized to 1.5 The ubiquitous 1.3 So why stop using it?

In 1984 when the Mark VII was newly on sale, Corporate Program #12 was launched. It had been quite some time (1979) since any Mark used its own platform, and in that instance it was only because the Thunderbird had moved to a new platform via downsizing. Said relocation required a revision to the exhaust routing.

Since this energy loss is primarily thermal in nature and can be attributed to the exhaust, cooling system, and engine and transmission surfaces, Mazda’s R&D team’s central focus is on improving the engine’s thermal efficiency cost-effectively. Extreme compression ratio rather than downsizing. Although downsizing—i.e.,
