Zusammenfassung
The purist and award winning vehicle demonstrator CULT (Cars Ultra Light Technologies) of Magna Steyr was equipped with an innovative 3-cylinder 600 ccm compressed natural gas (CNG) engine with direct CNG injection, micro hybridization, automated transmission and achieved approximately 60 g CO2/km in the European test cycle. The results achieved with this configuration comprising a vehicle weight 680 kg have proven that it is possible to achieve lower CO2 emissions compared to an electric driven vehicle based on the European electricity generation mix (~80 g CO2/km).
