Changes in the attributes (clockwise from upper left, weight, power, fuel economy and torque) of the Honda Accord over time as an example of fleet trends in the US. In contrast, fuel economy actually increased by 15% during that period. Knittel, 2009. Click to enlarge.

In a second paper, also published in Fuel , they systematically compared the stoichiometric alcohol–gasoline and gasoline–alcohol DFSI combustion for engine particle number (PN) reduction (and fuel economy improvement), also using a high compression ratio gasoline engine. They flexibly controlled the PFI to DI fuel ratios.

improvement in fuel economy in operation over the Japanese 10-15 cycle. When downsizing, Kato said, using a turbocharger or supercharger to offset the decrease in output can result in a fall in the knocking limit as the boosting pressure rises, causing the thermal efficiency to fall as well. mm with reference to the piston pin.

This corresponds to a 23% reduction in fuel consumption and, therefore, CO 2 output.). From a powertrain frame of reference, Mazda is planning a building block strategy—i.e., Extreme compression ratio rather than downsizing. Although downsizing—i.e., knock) and an associated reduction in torque.

This downsizing enables lower fuel consumption, accompanied by low emissions and optimum weight. The 4-cylinder Sprinter features a 7-speed automatic transmission with torque converter—the only 7-speed automatic transmission to feature in a van—is refined for maximum fuel economy.

The Freightliner SuperTruck uses a downsized and downsped 10.7-liter This reduces friction, and increases efficiency and fuel economy. Drivers can run the AC for more than an hour without turning the engine on, resulting in significant reductions in fuel consumption. DTNA SuperTruck technology elements. Click to enlarge.
