Comparison of Vehicles in US versus Mexico! 25!
High Altitude Impacts! Fuel economy is BETTER at high altitude:! Air density is lower, decreasing aerodynamic drag and reducing pumping losses.! There is a loss of power if the engine is naturally aspirated:! If a manufacturer designs the vehicle for high altitude, they will need to install a larger engine.! However, engines in Mexico are still smaller and have less power than engines in the US, making it easier for Mexican vehicles to meet the standards.! Turbocharging will eliminate the power loss at high altitude - while preserving the pumping loss improvements:! "All EcoBoost V-6 engines maintain peak torque capability at well over 5,000 feet above sea level, making EcoBoostequipped vehicles ideal for high-altitude operation." http://media.ford.com/article_display.cfm?article_id=30651! 26!
Wide-Range Transmission Gears!! Older 4- and 5-speed transmissions have a gear range of about 4.5 (ratio of shortest gear to tallest gear). It cannot cover all driving from highway cruising to high-altitude grades. Thus, some low-powered vehicles may need to have shorter gears for Mexico.!! Current 6+ speed transmissions have wider gear ranges, of 6.0 or more. This provides proper gearing for both highway cruising and high-altitude grades, without the need to change gearing.!! Also note that turbocharged engines do not lose performance at highaltitude, further reducing any need for shorter gears.! Older transmissions! Current US transmissions! Gear range! Gear range!

There are many opportunities to reduce fuel consumption of heavy vehicles (including buses).! Improve engine efficiency Optimize driver behavior Improve vehicle and trailer aerodynamics Reduce vehicle weight Reduce auxiliary loads Improve transmission and drivetrain efficiency Reduce rolling resistance 35!
US Technology Assessment! U.S. National Academy of Sciences (March 2010) found 35-50% improvement could be achieved in the 2015 to 2020 timeframe!

Also, for each vehicle class, the fuel consumption benefit of the combined technology packages is calculated as follows: % FCpackage = 1 (1 - %FCtech 1)(1 - %FCtech2)(1 - %FCtech N) where %FCtech x is the percent benefit of an individual technology.

Conclusion! 37!
Summary! Computer aided design and computer simulations are accelerating technology development.! Especially important for lightweight materials.! Costs are rapidly decreasing.! Altitude impacts are becoming less important, due to turbocharging and transmissions with a wider range of gears.! Engines in Mexico are smaller and have less power than in the US, making it easier for them to meet the standards.! 38!
