The transition will be uneven and politically charged, but on the core engineering and economic merits, the gas engine is ...

Mazda’s SKYACTIV-Z project has highlighted the automaker’s desire to continue innovating gas-powered engines while other legacy manufacturers accelerate investments into electric powertrain ...

Astron aerospace has shown a partial prototype of a new rotary combustion engine it claims runs at an extraordinary 60% thermal efficiency, burning totally clean with zero NOx emissions and nothing ...

New study shows that an overwhelming 61% of consumers would still pick an internal combustion engine for their next car, and ...

Intake, compression, power, then exhaust. Every 4-stroke engine ever made – about 80% of all engines currently in existence – function on this principle – even rotary engines. But now, Porsche has ...

A new type of flame produced on the International Space Station (ISS) doesn’t just look cool with its spherical blue glow—it is cool. Cool flames, which burn at temperatures much lower than ...

We all know how a conventional internal combustion engine works, with a piston and a crankshaft. But that’s by no means the only way to make an engine, and one of the slightly more unusual ...

Ford once sketched a road where an engine's pistons never saw oil and engines ran hotter on purpose. In a late‑1980s patent application filed and granted in Europe, the company described an "uncooled ...

"No replacement for displacement" was the motto that produced some large powerplants during the exciting muscle car era. Nevertheless, this motto was taken to another dimension in the case of these ...

Craig has worked in automotive media for nearly 20 years, producing content for publications ranging from Autoline and AutoGuide to Roadshow by CNET and EV Pulse. Aside from writing, he’s also ...
