The new engine will achieve high efficiency using the Atkinson Cycle with an 18:1 compression ratio, combined with aggressive engine downsizing. Valve events will also be adjusted with the VVA to trap more air in the cylinders when power is needed. Engine downsizing is a key tool in improving fuel economy. Background.

In general, the low surface area and low heat transfer and low knock combustion chamber enable the combustion strategy to operate in an over-compressed mode. During the valve open event, all but the top few millimeters are drawn past a lip seal into oil. —Tony Willcox, Pinnacle Engines. Active sleeve cooling.

GDi is essential for the accelerating trend toward downsized turbocharged engines as by cooling the charge it allows higher boost levels or a higher compression ratio. This results in a more fun-to-drive experience with better fuel economy. —Dr. The planned introduction date is toward the end of 2011.
