It then simply idles, which saves fuel and ensures there is no unwanted engine braking at high speed.

The higher top gear not only reduces fuel consumption but the lower engine revs improve comfort and reduce noise when cruising at a sustained speed.

This initial application of Mazda's SKYACTIV engine and transmission technologies — their first application in a production vehicle — will realize higher torque at low - and mid-range engine speeds resulting in better drivability with less fuel consumption in everyday driving.

TSI engines also deliver higher torque output at relatively lower engine speeds, which makes these engines responsive as well as fuel - efficient in a wide range of operating conditions.

Performance is enhanced with a new high gear boost control device, which momentarily increases boost of the engine's twin turbochargers for greater torque in the intermediate - to - high speed ranges to provide a more powerful feeling of acceleration, while also allowing the engine to operate at a lower speed for improved fuel economy.

In the 10th gear range, the CVT control allows for high - speed cruising at lower engine revs for quiet, smooth and fuel - efficient performance.

It uses a wide gear ratio setting that can fully exploit the wide torque band of the DISI Turbo engine, with a sixth gear that contributes to a quieter ride and improved fuel economy when driving at high speed.

Fuel economy is estimated at 21 city, 27 highway, and 23 combined miles per gallon thanks to the gearbox's absurd number of forward ratios, the engine's use of fuel - saving technologies including direct injection, and the Active Drive 4x4 system's ability to disengage the rear wheels in high traction situations (such as highway coasting or low - speed cruising) to reduce drivetrain dFuel economy is estimated at 21 city, 27 highway, and 23 combined miles per gallon thanks to the gearbox's absurd number of forward ratios, the engine's use of fuel - saving technologies including direct injection, and the Active Drive 4x4 system's ability to disengage the rear wheels in high traction situations (such as highway coasting or low - speed cruising) to reduce drivetrain dfuel - saving technologies including direct injection, and the Active Drive 4x4 system's ability to disengage the rear wheels in high traction situations (such as highway coasting or low - speed cruising) to reduce drivetrain drag.

The new 1.3 - liter powerplant combines greater driving enjoyment with higher torque at low engine speeds, plus higher, more consistent torque at higher revs and lower fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.

Nissan Motor Co. says it has developed a new turbocharging system that provides improved torque and engine response at low speeds in city driving.Nissan says the new system will give a 2.5 - liter engine the same fuel efficiency as a 2.0 - liter engine and the same low - speed torque as a naturally aspirated 3.5 - liter engine.The new system will be introduced in new models for the Japanese market later this year.The system is based on what Nissan calls a «linear charge concept,» which allows boost pressure to rise gradually with acceleration, increasing on a linear level from low to high speeds.

This allows the engine to run in the Atkinson cycle at low revs for improved fuel economy and lower emissions, and in the Otto cycle at higher engine speeds for enhanced power delivery and performance, while delivering high torque output throughout the rev band.

Designed for high efficiency at every speed: The seventh gear is configured as a high - geared overdrive which reduces engine speed, thus cutting fuel consumption.

Other features of the 1.4 L turbocharged GDI four - cylinder engine include an integrated cylinder head and exhaust manifold that improves fuel economy 5 ~ 7 % at higher engine speeds.

This allows optimum fuel - air mixing both at low engine speeds and loads (port injection) and at high engine speeds and loads (direct injection).

Also, for the first time in a Lexus performance engine, the rear - wheel - drive coupe uses the Atkinson cycle at cruising speeds for enhanced fuel economy and then switches to the Otto cycle at higher rpm to enhance performance levels.

Most people tuning the newest small block Chevy know that the reason they rate them at a 6k hp peak is because the cylinder shutdown hardware in its pushrod valvetrain doesn't play nice at engine speeds higher than 6,500... the fuel cutoff is very sudden... you can read that in any road test.

Engines do not develop constant power at all speeds; they have specific speeds where torque (pulling power), horsepower (speed power) or fuel efficiency are at their highest levels.

Even when the petrol engine kicks in (as the master computer requires on all Prius cars at higher speeds), electric power is still blended in to improve fuel economy and provides up to 75 % of the total power at 55mph.

Some of the key principles of Eco-Driving are: • Maintain engine speeds between 1200 — 3000 rotations per minute (RPM); • Change to higher gears between 2000 — 2500 RPM, and drive in top gears at lower speeds — the so - called «50 in 4th gear» driving style; • Try to anticipate more to avoid strong accelerations, decelerations, overtaking or aggressive driving; • Driving at speed limits and avoiding high speeds; • Add 10 % to standard tyre pressure; • Avoid using the air condition, or set at temperatures above 21Â °C; • Use your bike for short trips — starting your car when it is «cold» uses 300 % more fuel.»
