CLEPA (the European umbrella membership organization representing the interests of the global automotive supply industry) and EUCAR (the European Council for Automotive R&D from the major European passenger car and commercial vehicle manufacturers) jointly prepared the document. Funding will be spread over four years. €1
BorgWarner is supplying its advanced wastegate turbocharging technology for numerous hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) from BYD AutoIndustry Company Limited. The turbochargers boost BYD Auto’s 1.5-liter liter direct injection gasoline engine in its Qin, Song and Yuan HEVs as well as the 2.0-liter
Vehicle electrification and in particular mild hybridization of a conventional powertrain at 48V is a rapid growth area for the automotive industry. The exhaust gas can reach temperatures greater than 900 °C, whereas the turbine upper functional limit is 850 °C. The management of the project is being handled by Ricardo.
In their paper, the researchers from Ford, GM and AVL note that: Modification of gasoline blendstock composition in preparing ethanol-gasoline blends has a significant impact on vehicle exhaust emissions.
JAMA bases its postion on the results of study from the Japan Auto-Oil Program subsidized by Japan’s Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI). Impact on exhaust aftertreatment systems. Impact on stability. Impact on emissions. Impact on low temperature operability. Impact on engine oil. Impact on reliability.
The autoindustry has known for a long time that business-as-usual was literally unsustainable. Globally, the automotive industry is being driven to provide more fuel efficient, less polluting and more electrified vehicles primarily by regulatory pressures, although consumer demand is playing its part as well.
Testing is due to be complete next year, prompting the auto, oil and outdoor power equipment industries to urge the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to delay action on its proposal to allow higher levels of ethanol in gasoline until that testing is done. Exhaust emissions on vehicles aged on mid-level ethanol blends.
New pistons provide a higher, more efficient compression ratio, and a newly designed, integrated exhaust manifold is optimized for the twin-scroll turbo system. liter EcoBoost with integrated exhaust manifold is projected to deliver horsepower and torque output comparable to the 1.6-liter—an The twin-scroll turbocharged 2.0-liter
So it’s clear that significant changes need to be made to the vehicle fleet.Given the financial challenges facing the autoindustry, the powertrain solutions need to meet customer approval and need to be manufacturable.so Cooled exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) under boosted conditions. Increased cylinder pressure envelope.
These changes were pushed for by the Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries, Australia’s primary automaker lobbyist. According to Climate Action Tracker , no countries have made commitments compatible with keeping global temperatures under +1.5ºC above pre-industrial levels, and only a scant few are rated as “almost sufficient.”
As I get ready this morning to head over to the Lutheran Church in Gardena to participate in this national day of service by helping to prepare meals for my less fortunate neighbors, I want to thank the autoindustry for giving me a great laugh at their expense. Way to kill the audience, Greg. Don’t worry, pal, you soon will.
Jeremiads lamenting China’s takeover of the global autoindustry are everywhere these days. Retreating behind tariff walls or outright bans will further isolate America’s autoindustry into a Galapagos market of ridiculous trucks sold at nosebleed prices.” Three recent accounts stand out from the pack. Williams asks.
The list of powertrains (note we can’t say engines anymore) was fairly exhaustive—39 vehicles were evaluated with 18 of those electrified models. The final list recognizes the shift the autoindustry is making towards electrification, which is currently encompassing all of the pathways recognized in the list.
We are literally trying to reinvent the autoindustry, so why go the conventional route and rework someone else’s engine? The Elio engine uses a cooled Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) system. There really was nothing available that combined the speed and power that we want and our customers deserve.
The SKYACTIV-X combines the benefits of a spark-ignition gasoline engine—expansiveness at high rpms and cleaner exhaust emissions— with those of a compression-ignition diesel engine—superior initial response and fuel economy. Unfortunately, switching between these two modes is extremely difficult.
When veteran Wall Street Journal reporter Mike Colias began writing about the automotive industry in 2010, the internal-combustion engine still served as the beating heart of legacy carmakers. Thats the elementary-school explanation; there are myriad other partspiston rings, flywheels, rocker arms, exhaust manifoldsthat do their piece.
It will be interesting to see how it fairs next year after having exhausted its backlog of reservations after having delivered 40,000 to 50,000 trucks. In the autoindustry, its normal to buy vehicles from other automakers to benchmark or reverse-engineer them.
The subsidy was reduced after the funds envisaged for the two-wheeler segment were exhausted. Speaking exclusively to Autocar Professional at the sidelines of the ARAI Symposium on International Automotive Technology (SIAT) 2024 in Pune, he said that FAME 3 will be implemented after FAME 2 expires in March 2024.
The cost-cutting is exhausted and there isn’t enough innovation.” That compares with an industry average of about 25% during that span, when manufacturers jacked up what they charged for new vehicles in part because of post-pandemic supply chain issues. This is a bump. There will be other bumps.
The alternative-fuel car evolved to reduce exhaust emissions and other problems derived from burning fossil fuels. Andrew Frank is a significant industry dignitary credited as being the “Inventor” (or “Father”) of the modern day Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle. by Professor Andrew Alfonso Frank. CTO Efficient Drivetrains Inc.
However, subsequent to the Voight/Nol offer, DOE announced it would auction off the remainder of Fisker’s loan obligation, “ after exhausting any realistic possibility for a sale that might have protected our entire investment. ” [See sidebar.]. DOE auctioning off the Fisker loan. On 17 September, Peter W. Earlier post.)
Because EVs run on electricity, the vehicle emits no exhaust from a tailpipe and does not contain the typical liquid fuel components in ICEVs. The mining industry as a whole is also being held more accountable globally and parts of the global autoindustry are now focusing intently on ethical sourcing.

XPeng is the highest quality intelligent EV that we could identify after an exhaustive search,” TrueEV CEO Jason Clarke said in a media statement. “We Among the other key executive listed the one with the most autoindustry experience appears to be director of sales Paul Young. 2024 XPeng G6 interior. ” 2024 XPeng G6.
US Automakers are planning to ask Mr. Trump to retain President Biden’s EPA exhaust rules , in the face of signs that Mr. Trump might try to reverse them. Interestingly, this is the opposite of what big auto did the last time a reality TV show came to the White House – signaling that they have perhaps learned their lesson this time ’round.
Toyota has been revealed as the largest autoindustry funder of climate deniers in US Congress, according to a report released today by Public Citizen. The rest of the autoindustry also asked for that softening of the rules, but there is now an opportunity for them to go further.
Electrek’s Take Trump talking about EV mandates that don’t exist already proves his lack of knowledge of the industry. He is likely referring to the EPA exhaust regulations, finalized earlier this year. Source: Business Korea FTC: We use income earning auto affiliate links.

Those regulations were supported by Tesla – whose CEO just committed $180 million to the same person who seems to know nothing about the industry Tesla operates in. They could have been better, but after lobbying from the auto and oil industries, those regulations were softened compared to the original proposal. Lie number two.
