Subaru, Toyota and Mazda to Develop New Engines for Carbon Neutrality

TapTechNews May 30th news, Subaru, Toyota, and Mazda jointly released an announcement stating that to achieve carbon neutrality, they will respectively develop new types of engines suitable for electrification and the pursuit of carbon neutrality.

According to the introduction, the new engine will be committed to achieving the best integration with electric drive units such as motors and batteries. In addition to changing the layout of the car through engine miniaturization, carbon neutrality of the engine can also be achieved by using internal combustion engines with various carbon neutral (CN) fuels.

The new engine will not use fossil fuels and will achieve carbon neutrality through diversified fuels such as e-fuel (TapTechNews note: synthetic fuel), biofuels, and liquid hydrogen. Thus, the new engine will also contribute to the popularization of CN fuels.

The goal of the new engine is not only to improve the performance of individual engines but also to strive for the best functionality of the engine and the electric drive unit in their respective advantageous fields on the premise of combining with the electric drive unit.

In addition, compared to traditional engines, while achieving high efficiency and high output, it will also be miniaturized and change the layout of the car. Through these, the height of the front hood will be further reduced, improving the design sense and aerodynamic performance, and enhancing fuel efficiency. In the future, we will also continuously advance research and development to meet more stringent emission restrictions.
