The primary power source for the Patriot is a twin spool gas turbine like those found in jet
engines, which
runs at 100 000 revolutions per minute in its high - speed stage, and 50 000
rpm in its
low - speed stage.
Set these test conditions:

Run for
at least ten minutes, longer on a hot day.
Calibrated for high mileage, the Drive mode allows the
engine to
run at very
low rpm while cruising, which sometimes produces a slight vibration.
After about an hour of
running, I find the
engine starts to lose its power
at say 3500
RPM, and what I have to do is
lower it to 2000
RPM, if I try to increase the
RPM back to 3000 - 3500
RPM it starts to depower try to catch back
at the required
RPM then it loses power again.

By varying and strategically directing the amount of exhaust pulse used to
run its turbocharger, the 2.5 - liter Skyactiv - G
engine can spool up more quickly
at low rpm.
Anecdotal evidence (such as it is) indicates that, as you'd expect, removing deposits increases coolant flow, making the
engine run cooler
at lower RPMs.
In general
engines run most efficiently close to their peak torque
at wide open throttle and
at the
lowest RPM possible.
The thing that surprises me is the very
low voltage signal, because the
engine coolant temperature shows that the
engine is quite warm (which it should be after 9 minutes of
running at 4000
RPM), so regardless of the O2 heater malfunction that lambda sensor should be hot and triggering the ECU to
run in closed loop (which it clearly isn't).
Then add acetone
at a rate of six ounces for every ten gallons and
run the
engine immediately in
low gear
at high
RPM (3,500
RPM) for 15 minutes and floor it on the highway six times.
In fact, the larger
engine, according to chief engineer Akihiko Otsuka, actually helps raise the highway mileage figure because it
runs at fifteen percent
lower rpm.
Together with changing the air intake filter, all of this helped the car
run much better, especially when being driven
at or accelerating out of
low engine RPM.
By making more torque, the new
engine can
run at lower average
rpm on the highway.
The two - mode transmission is the key to the whole system, which attempts to keep the
engine running at the optimum
rpm for
low fuel consumption.
By pressing the exhaust sound control switch prior to
engine start, this will close the electronic valve within the exhaust system for more quiet operation
at engine startup and continue for a brief time while the vehicle is driven with the
engine running at low rpms.
Yuuji Fujiki, chief engineer for Honda's IMA hybrid system, explained that the larger displacement allows the
engine to
run at lower RPMs, which in turn allows for more frequent use of the electric motor and produces a quieter ride.
The first is a dual - mass flywheel with a centrifugal pendulum, intended to reduce vibration and allow the
engine to
run at even
lower rpm in higher gears.
Being of a smaller displacement of only 2.0 litres, there was a noticable big pick - up in power in the first gear when the
engine is still
running off - boost, but right after 1,800
rpm boost kicks in with strong force — you wouldn't want to be caught doing a maneuver like a U-turn
at low speeds when that happens because the back would surely swing.
Most prominent is a dual - mass flywheel with a centrifugal pendulum, intended to reduce vibration and allow the
engine to
run at lower rpm in higher gears.

In addition, the use of a turbocharger with variable geometry enables the
engine to deliver high torque
at low revs: 170 Nm
at 1,250
rpm and a maximum torque of 200 Nm
at 1,500
rpm, all to the benefit of flexible
running and pleasant driving.
