Given that the traditional four-stroke Otto-cycle engine piston engine only has a thermal efficiency of 25-30 percent, there is clearly still plenty of room for improvement. While most of the green automobile attention in recent years has been focused on electrification, liquid fuels still have about 100 times the energy density of today’s best lithium-ion batteries, a difference that probably won’t change significantly any time in the near future.

With that in mind, there is still plenty of effort being expended on improving the humble internal combustion engine. These efforts range from completely different architectures like EcoMotors’ opposed piston opposed cylinder (OPOC) to new combustion processes such as homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI). One of the more interesting combustion-related developments comes from a California-based startup known as Transonic Combustion. In 2007, the company was claiming it could get an ICE […]

Honda Insight, left; Civic hybrid


Late last week we heard a report from Quebec that Honda Canada would be discontinuing the Insight and Civic hybrid for the 2011 model year due to poor sales. We’ve now received a clarification from Honda Canada spokesman Richard Jacobs, who told AutoblogGreen that the two hybrids have not, in fact, been discontinued. According to Jacobs, Canadian dealers currently have a six-month supply of the Insight and Civic, so Honda hasn’t ordered any new cars from the factories in Japan. 


“Honda Canada will listen to the voice of our customers and will bring the products they want,” Jacobs said. Both hybrids will remain available and Honda will be monitoring inventories and customer demand to determine when to order more units. Perhaps the launch of the CR-Z will get customers to reconsider its siblings as well.
