Downsizing together with turbocharging / higher specific output Concept Downsizing is achieved by the reduction of the engine displacement, increasing the specific loading on the engine For a gasoline engine, this leads to De-throttling, and hence Reduced fuel consumption. To compensate torque and power output, boosting is used to maintain the vehicle dynamics Reduced engine weight and friction further increase fuel efficiency. Reduced package size leads to further vehicle benefits. 13 Advanced Downsizing MAHLE engine concept Engine design Engine development Summary and outlook
