In part-load operation, the indirect injection supplements direct gasoline injection to improve fuel economy and to reduce the output of particulates from the engine. GDI technology provides fuel efficiency benefits from charge air cooling, more facile turbocharging, and the downsizing that these permit. Earlier post.). Earlier post.)

Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) has successfully demonstrated that its HEDGE (High-Efficiency, Dilute Gasoline Engine) technology, using cooled exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) and advanced ignition systems, suppresses low-speed pre-ignition in turbocharged gasoline direct-injection engines.

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. Earlier post.).

The global energy supply became 6% cleaner from 1971 to 1990,in response to the oil shocks of the 1970s. Engine downsizing and weight reduction represent around 30% of that potential collectively. Vehicle downsizing has enabled considerable efficiency improvements, particularly in OECD regions and since 2005. tCO 2 /TJ (2.39

In the event of slippage it instantaneously engages a hydraulic power supply to transfer extra torque to the wheel with the most traction by modulating the differential from fully open to fully locked, and anywhere in between, depending on driving conditions. The system comprises a deactivation rocker arm and oil control valve.
