Small modular engines like that can be put in individual wheels, or axles, or in series. Just like a rotary engine can become 2 3 or 4 rotors by just replacing the eccentric shaft and adding more housings.

It's interesting, I feel there's still water to be squeezed out of piston engines. We don't have a war necessary to develop it though.

The current administration is stupid because they are wasting the war time economy. What do these assholes have to show for it? A stronger dragnet? Decaying social fabric? Higher production values in their propaganda? At least engineering developments were made during WW2, Cold War. What do we have now? Nothing but digital images, and the ability to visualize stuff, yay.

I like turtles

I mean, the OP video was about the wankel engine then it goes off topic to talk about some vaporware engine, and I'm like, piston engines still have a lot of development potential.

Turtles are cool too I guess.

We have only begun to scratch the surface of internal combustion configurations.

100 mpg cars will become commonplace eventually.

vaporware engine

What do you mean? They have running engines, a DoD research contract, and have multiple fuels and sizes confirmed.

Does vaporware mean non-production? Normally vaporware means nonexistent or imaginary.

They should call it a turtle engine cus oval shape.

RX8 is fucking ugly. RX7 was always the best one, I don't know they they changed the body style from that. My wife has a Mazda 3... which is the same body as the RX8. Stupid pointless car.

Hydrogen rotary? I can't wait to drive my very own Hindenburg.
