Summary
In the last years the engine technologies like boosting and EGR have been developed to a high level of maturity. This enables Diesel and SI engines with smaller displacements in combination with reduced number of cylinders to perform equally or even outperform their larger naturally aspirated
counterparts, while achieving a fuel consumption benefit between 5% and 10%.
