Trends include reducing weight and installation space while increasing service life and reducing costs. Advanced Technology & Reliability
Phase I of the study investigated the emission-criticality of original equipment installed by the engine or vehicle manufacturers. U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (.gov) ENGINES & TRANSMISSIONS V0.1.2.32S 1.46
Improved fuel-air ratio controls and advanced spark timing enhance efficiency in spark-ignition engines. Trends include reducing weight and installation space while
Two-speed final drives and computer-based controls are used to optimize drivetrain efficiency in real time. high-quality lubrication is critical
Transfers power to the wheels.
These engines compress only air (or air combined with exhaust gases) during the intake stroke to achieve high efficiency and compression.
Consistent, high-quality lubrication is critical, often called the "blood" of the vehicle, to reduce friction, prevent overheating, and protect components from wear. Key Transmission Components
