The fuel saving technology

According to data of the United States Energy Research, the technology developed in recent years can save between 7% to 12% of the cost of fuel for cars.
The development of science and technology have contributed significantly to improving process efficiency and fuel economy, especially when rising gasoline prices. A series of solutions from the chemistry, biology and mechanics are proposed. However, not all positive results, although they work well at a certain time.
Research institutions and renewable energy the U.S. has tested the technology works to improve the fuel consumption but does not alter the structure of the engine. The statistical results are determined using the period 300,000 km, gas prices at $ 3.07 per barrel (equivalent to 3.785 liters per barrel) and consumption rate 11 liters per 100 kilometers.
1. Variable valve technology time Honda VTEC technology.


VVT (Variable Valve Timing & Lift) control the flow of air and fuel into the cylinders and the exhaust comes out the exhaust system. Through the VVT, the system will automatically adjust the charge-discharge time for optimal combustion takes place most effectively. According to reviews, VVT is likely to increase about 5% fuel efficiency, equivalent to $ 1,400.
2. Cylinder system initiative Cylinder system initiative.

English term "cylinder deactivation" technology capable off half the engine cylinders when not needed and re-enabled when the vehicle load changes. Technical innovation can help improve vehicle efficiency by 7.5% fuel use, or save $ 2,000.

3. Turbine turbocharger and supercharger


Known as the "turbocharger" and "supercharger", improves engine power, reduce the size without losing functionality. Can improve performance up 7.5% savings of $ 2,000 and the cost of gasoline.
4. The system automatically shut down

Automatically shutdown or restart the engine when the car stopped to reduce consumption and improve performance up to 8%, equivalent to $ 2,200. English name: "Integrated Starter / Generator - ISG.


5. Gasoline direct injection technology
Spray fuel directly into the cylinder through multi-point injector (Direct Fuel Injection). This technology enabled the creation of volume ratio of air / fuel optimization, making the process more complete combustion occurs. This is one of the most effective improvements to increase performance up to 12% savings is $ 3,200.
6. Stepless gearbox


English term "Continuously Variable Transmission." Transmission technology using an infinite number of "levels" or a transmission ratio undefined. Though there are difficulties in fabrication and may be common, but CVT (for use on motorcycles scooters) has demonstrated the role of improving efficiency by 6%, equivalent to the amount of $ 1,600 savings.
7. Semi-automatic gearbox
Combining the advantages of both manual and automatic (Automated Manual Transmission). It works like manual gearboxes, but the driver does not need to use your hands to some structure to the electrically driven through the hydraulic system. AMT can improve efficiency by 7% of fuel, equivalent to $ 1,900.
