Oversize engines designed to operate at low working loads with high efficiency, producing less engine noise and vibration at normal cruising speed.

Cylinder deactivation puts more stress on the brakes because there's less engine braking during deceleration, but with a 48 - volt system the energy that's normally wasted through the brakes is now sent back into the battery.

In order to meet the forthcoming CO2 emission specifications without losses in terms of torque and performance, there are two central trends when it comes to combustion units: downsizing (which means turbocharged engines with fewer cylinders and less engine displacement); and downspeeding, which is the reduction of the engine speeds combined with a maximum torque that is applied at a very early stage.

This means that less engine power is needed to run the alternator.
