Toyota’s FPEG features a hollow step-shaped piston, combustion chamber and gas spring chamber. Toyota envisions that a pair of such units (20 kW) would enable B/C-segment electric drive vehicles to cruise at 120 km/h (75 mph). The FPEG consists of a two-stroke combustion chamber, a linear generator and a gas spring chamber.
