It's only teasing a bit of information for now, but it will be properly unveiled during this year's Paris Motor Show. Cars are Andrew's jam, as is strawberry. After spending years as a regular ol' car ...

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 ...

Nissan brought the first, and only, variable-compression engine to market. But its future doesn't look bright. Complexity in ...

Engineers have been trying to perfect variable-compression engines for almost as long as engines have existed. So far, though, only Nissan has succeeded in bringing one to production. Its Variable ...

Infiniti is putting the pressure on its competitors. The automaker has revealed plans to introduce the first production-ready engine with a variable compression ratio that promises to improve ...

As a concept, the internal combustion engine is as old as dirt. To our luck, the ICE is still relevant nowadays thanks to engineering developments such as direct injection, cylinder deactivation, stop ...

GM has filed a patent application for so-called “Multilink Cranktrains with Combined Eccentric Shaft and Camshaft Drive System for Internal Combustion Engines.” The system is designed to provide ...

Forget variable length intakes and variable valve timing, Infiniti is going all the way and introducing variable cylinder compression ratios. The new VC-T turbo engine automatically adjusts between a ...

Infiniti showed off a slightly updated Q50 yesterday at the Paris Motor Show, but nobody gave a damn because right next to it was this: the first ever production-ready variable compression-ratio ...

Despite the turbulence Nissan has faced over the past few years, some of its technology is undeniably impressive. Perhaps the crowning jewel of this engineering power is its variable compression ...

While significant attention is being paid to battery-electric and hydrogen fuel-cell powertrains, carmakers are still trying to wring more efficiency out of internal-combustion engines. Now, Infiniti ...
