Infiniti introduced the world's first variable compression-ratio engine, a technology it claims to have been working on for two decades, at the 2017 Los Angeles Auto Show. A variable compression-ratio ...

With Infiniti having recently revolutionized internal combustion engines by the introduction of a variable compression ratio mill, we're here to take the time to zoom in on the tech introduced by the ...

Turbocharging has mostly not lived up to its billing of being the savior of internal-combustion engine technology. Earlier this decade, facing increasing fuel economy requirements, automakers rushed ...

Ben Hodgkinson is confident of having a fully legal engine in 2026, amidst speculation regarding compression ratios.

Even before the 2026 calendar year has begun, the first controversy under F1's new ruleset has already surfaced. It concerns the engine regulations, and more specifically the compression ratio of the ...

We might be covering ground that's well trampled for many, but the static compression ratio of an engine is simple to understand: it's all the volume of a cylinder above the compression ring at Bottom ...

Diesel engines are different from gas engines in numerous ways, including their use of high compression ratios. Here's why ...

A NEW BARRIER to higher compression ratios has recently become apparent — engine rumble! This phenomenon will prevent further increases in compression ratio unless corrective measures are taken. This ...

A gasoline piston engine that can dynamically change its compression ratio —that is, the amount by which the piston squeezes the fuel-air mixture in the cylinder—has long been a holy grail of engine ...

A fundamental difference between gasoline and diesel engines is that a gasoline engine uses spark ignition while a diesel engine uses compression ignition. Before we delve deeper, let's understand how ...

As fast as electric cars are improving and expanding, there are some things that gas engines do better—many experts agree that gasoline engines will be around for several decades. Developing electric ...
