The upside of gasoline direct injection (GDI) engines is widely seen as being improved fuel economy coupled with an increase in specific power (especially with turbocharging), enabling significant downsizing. A new study by a team at the University of Toronto has made a preliminary assessment of the climate trade-off (i.e.,
