  • The best thing about this system is that there is no wasted energy in a transmission. The engine can run at the most efficient rpm 100% of the time. Makes since that the engine would last a lot longer too without all the hard acceleration.

  • wat program did they use to make this i need to make a similar presentation for a commercial any help or input would be greatly appreciated

  • This is very exciting stuff... Word is we might see this in passenger vehicles and trucks before 2013! Word is Ford has a full size F150 doing 40mpg in the Lab. Couple this technogy with Direct injection and Cylinder deactivation and we are going to be seeing some very powerful, yet very economical engines. Right now the engineering challenge is size and noise.

  • Compressed air is lighter than hydrolic fluid, why not use that?

  • pretty cool.

  • Be ready Asian women online **lushfmlk.info**

  • Unbelievable! This has a bigger than thought advantage over Prius-like cars: no expensive and polluting Lithium batteries

  • how fast that shit go, and how powerfull it is?

  • Comment removed

  • Makes me proud....

  • As someone who has worked on the rear end of a truck, I want this system to develop into mainstream consumer vehicles...no more spider gears, U joints and drive shafts!!! Fewer moving parts, higher efficiency and reduced weight! I want one.

  • So, there is no need for a transmission?

  • It has one, only it's hydraulic, and has the possibility of storing energy.

  • THANKS A LOT FOR SHARING

  • And when dont you frequently stop in a car driving around a city ??

  • Car companies don't wanna use this for passenger cars coz electricity. Normal cars use gasoline engine to generate electricity and passenger in the car can use electric appliances without worrying they are running out of electric power.But, for this series hydraulic hybrid, gasoline engine usually is shut off because most of the time the system use the kinetic energy from braking that stored in the reservoir. In short, this system is efficient for vehicles that make frequent stop like ups truck.

  • Why not an electric/hydraulic hybrid system? You get the best of both.

  • @3089280288 Hydraulics are more power dense, where as electrics are more energy dense. Practically what that means is that HHVs are better at regenerative braking. Adding an electric system would limit the range unless you had a ton of batteries which would make it way too heavy and expensive.

  • Great, now we just need to apply it to passenger cars.
