A 110cc pre-production prototype of a Pinnace Engine 4-stroke opposed piston scooter engine ( earlier post ) showed approximately a 27% improvement in fuel consumption across different scooter cycles compared to a conventional benchmark engine in dynamometer and simulation testing by FEV. The work on the TP90 is for that partner.
