Injection system by Bosch

Injection pressure evolution in Diesel engine

Outlook “Over the next decade, the vast majority of diesel engines will manage with injection pressures of around 2,000 bar. Although 3,000 bar is not unrealistic, it will be limited to racing cars and high-performance diesel engines.”(Dr. Markus Heyn, President of the Diesel Systems division at Robert Bosch GmbH) Bosch Common-rail diesel The CRS3-25 common-rail

Multifunction active aerodynamic system by prodrive

A multifunction active aerodynamic system for supercar

A multi-function active aerodynamic system has been developed by Prodrive Automotive Technology. On behalf of a vehicle OEM for use in a 200+mph supercar, Prodrive produced the first functional prototype system eight months after starting the programme. The system was production-ready 18 months later, along with a bespoke manufacturing facility commissioned on site at Prodrive’s
