Co-Optima’s premise is that current fuels constrain engine design—and thus engine efficiency. At a compression ratio of 12:1, use of 98 RON fuels (including E20) yielded significant fuel efficiency improvements relative to 92 RON fuel, offering the possibility of fuel economy parity with E10 fuels for some driving cycles.

The Freightliner SuperTruck uses a downsized and downsped 10.7-liter This ensures the air coming out the tailpipe stays clean, while freeing up the engine to run more efficiently at higher temperatures and pressures. This reduces friction, and increases efficiency and fuel economy. DTNA SuperTruck technology elements.
