ElringKlinger focuses on engine downsizing and CO2 reduction

ERJ staff report (DS)

Dettingen/Erms, Germany -- Under the heading "Going for Green", ElringKlinger's activities at the IAA 2009 motor show will be centered around new technical solutions aimed at significantly reducing CO₂ emissions.

The company is focussing on new engines with smaller displacement, but increased turbo charging. This so-called "downsizing", in combination with the use of more lightweight materials, increased injection and combustion pressures as well as higher temperatures, is seen as a promising way of cutting CO₂ emissions.
