Just when you wonder what's next in engines along comes the next chapter. Good watch, I don't normally watch anything right through but this was real interesting.

Nice in theory ,but wonder what happens when the power torque drive reverses direction back up the drive line towards the over squared engine! and only 3 cylinders at that ! Looks expensive as heck to manufacture using high stress parts .N o mention of compensating for reverse directional torque flow ie when torque changes direction, such as during a vehicle acceleration or deceleration or where final drive line ratios used are lower or for that matter higher !Just i see they are using a clutch system in the drive outputs and a hydra coupling in the drive line so I guess the flow will come uncoupled if torque is too high. I think the idea of "free valve engine " is great .but trying to revolutionize other components in their whole concept could be the downfall.Looks to me like high maintenance.Time will tell how that one pans out .

It's in production, in the Gemera: so nothing Concept about it. This will give you the info:

Thanks will look at that but like I said love to see how it pans out ,trying to make sense from a few things.

The pessimist I am reminds me of the old crf450r dirt bike of having to replace piston/ rings regularly.That expensive Gemera looks like it wont make 100.000kms

As you well know, Super cars don't have to make Kms. They're there to make $$$$, and for the Ugly guys to pick up Otherwise un-gettable glamour pusses. Having said all that there are lots of Supercars that have 300,000KMs (200,000 +Mls ) on the clock.

that guy is in the same catagory as eric the car guy. or slight worse as i never subscribed to this guy but i had once to eric the car guy.
your better off watchin comedian cadogan at least he is 70% right and a comedian for entertainment
