When Japanese, American, German, and even Chinese brands were fighting for the lead in <\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">EVs<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> and <\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">FCEVs<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">, another one arrived to revolutionize the highways: this is the new kind of <\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">engine<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> with the experts in shock. How has no one tried this before? You&#8217;ll wonder when you finish reading the article.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">A new type of engine to be developed: neither electric nor hydrogen, but something better\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Mazda has embarked on to improve its rotary engines. This has been quite a revelation that means a change in ideology for this company as it has recently announced the formation of a unique team, <strong>henceforth to be working on the rotary engines exclusively<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">However, let&#8217;s discuss the properties of the new rotary engine and how a rotary engine is better than hydrogen. Mazda has long been associated with the rotary engine, having last used in the RX-8 model after the Cosmo Sport was first released in 1967.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The company <strong>has gradually advanced in technology over the years<\/strong>. In 2023, the company again began mass-producing rotary engine vehicles for the first time in almost 11 years since the Mazda RX-8 model was stopped in 2012.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The new team involved in developing the new rotary engine is popularly referred to as the RE Development Group. It comprises 36 engineers working on the next-generation rotary engine\/hybrid system for six years.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Why is Mazda&#8217;s rotary engine so futuristic? It could be the end of conventional fuels.<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Its predecessor, a <strong>triangular rotor placed inside an oval chamber<\/strong>, can have a continuous rotation that they named gyroscopic, making the engine incredibly smooth. This design also proposed that the engine has a more minor part that moves than the conventional 7-cylinder-style engine.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Another noteworthy aspect of the extended new rotary engine model is its flexibility in utilizing a variety of fuels, including gasoline, hydrogen, bio-fuels, and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG). This flexibility can accompany nearly any form or use, from personal automobiles to generating electricity in factories.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Expert&#8217;s predictions: it could be the end of EVs and FCEVs<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The main argument deals with hydrogen issues, <strong>including the following limitations of hydrogen<\/strong>. They have been made to appear as a clean and efficient fuel source, but they come with a package of inconveniences than the new rotary engine.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">First, hydrogen fuel has been a challenging fission product to produce and store; hence, it has yet to be practical enough to use as widely as anticipated. Also, the hydrogen refueling network needs to be more developedoped, hindering consumers&#8217; access to hydrogen fuelling stations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">On the other hand, the new rotary engine is a <strong>better invention than traditional internal combustion<\/strong> engines with higher efficiency and environment-friendly qualities. It is less pollutive and environmentally friendly than vehicles that use hydrogen.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Note that this fuel is usually manufactured with coal and natural gas electricity. In addition, the rotary engine can use almost any type of fuel, so it is likely to be used in different forms of vehicles compared to hydrogen cars, which can only use hydrogen fuel.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">A <\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">rotary engine<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> is not a futuristic invention (even part of the laws of thermodynamics). However, Mazda&#8217;s bet is to create a <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">genuinely<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> sustainable prototype that runs on an inexhaustible &#8220;fuel&#8221; with zero emissions from manufacturing to start-up. Will we soon see the first cars with it? Everything points to yes.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hydrogen is the fuel of the future, or so we thought until now.
