The innovation products of the company META Motoren- und Energietechnik GmbH do their part by improving the efficiency through engine downsizing combined with turbocharging (downsizing), cylinder deactivation and new combustion processes - but also through the use of alternative fuels.
The downsizing of engines has a significant savings potential. Reduced cubic inches, induction and reduction in speed can optimize the engine operation. In the compact and subcompact car class, a reduction of the number of cylinders can improve the edge conditions for an effective downsizing from a thermodynamic point of view. However, small numbers of cylinders combined with high super-charging lead to a large degree of rotation uniformity on
the crankshaft and thus a loss in comfort.
The meta-downsizing concept provides for the 2-cylinder-engine the following benefits:
This engine concept allows emissions of only 69 g/km in the compact car segment.
