increasingly focusing on integrating fuels with high octane and cetane number to enhance the
reliability and durability of the engines. In conjunction with the increasing versatility and
compatibility, the popularity of these engines will increase during the projected period. Some
of the major initiatives by the automotive industry participants are mentioned below:
BMW
In 2011, BMW introduced its new B-family engines featuring three-, four- and six-cylinder diesel
and petrol which commercialized in 2014. These were designed to accommodate next
generation technology that included HCCI and hybridization.
U.S. DoE and Bosch
Bosch announced its leading participation in Advanced Combustion Controls - Enabling Systems
and Solutions (ACCESS) that was US$ 12 Mn project funded by U.S. Department of Energy (DoE).
The project involved exploration of HCCI as a part of the project to develop advanced light duty
petrol engine.
Daimler
Mercedes-Benz showcased F700 sedan, featuring fuel saving technology such as VVC, ISAG, and
mild hybridization. The technology showcase emphasized on an estimated fuel saving of up to
47.5% in comparison to its S350 model. Moreover, the company spokesperson was reported to
state the company was making significant efforts in three to six modular inline engines with
variable compression ratio and HCCI technologies
Delphi
As of the news statement made by Delphi in May 2016, the company is making significant efforts
in the development of Gasoline Direct Compression Injection engine on similar concepts.
Utilizing the tight charge stratification and low temperature combustion, the prototypes four-
cylinder engine registered 13-18% fuel economy gain. The company is planning to
commercialize the technology by the mid-2020s.

General Motors, Honda, Hyundai, Mazda, Volkswagen are few of the other major vendors that
have also made significant progress and are likely to introduce the models featuring this
technology. This increased participation of the OEMs and the vendors have led to increased
