Downsizing Environment Exhaust Range 
Green Car Congress
JUNE 7, 2010
Renault held a “2010 Environment Workshop” last week to showcase its progress across its range of vehicles’ full lifecycle through the Renault eco² program. The downsizing process involved shortening the piston stroke by reducing the size of the crank pin and conrod assembly. Select Engines. New-generation 1.5 dCi engines.

The new Yaris Hybrid, which is equipped with a version of the downsized hybrid powertrain featured in the Prius c/Aqua ( earlier post ), is a major step in the company’s full hybrid European roll-out strategy. The downsized full hybrid system combines the new 1NZ-FXE 1.5-liter Fuel consumption is 3.5

Using the pressure from the exhaust gas from the active cylinders, the ‘idle’ cylinders could be expanded to extract more work out of the engine during partial load operation. Using the virtual simulation environment GT-Power, this cycle is applied to a 4-cylinder SI engine. —de Jong (2019).

Cobra could enable a 5–10% reduction in CO 2 emissions when implemented in conjunction with engine downsizing and down speeding strategies, and potentially more when used in conjunction with alternative fuels, according to CPT. Unlike a turbocharger, Cobra is not dependent on the exhaust gases flowing to do its work.

The low voltage approach compared with full hybrid and EV nominal voltages, which are typically in the range of 300 to 600V, avoids the need for high cost safety features and large battery packs. Moreover, compared with other electrical machines they have a high efficiency across a large speed range, good controllability, and reliability.
