Ecobus: more efficiency, less pollution

Redazione

Buses and trucks will remain almost the same on the outside, but they will change a lot on the inside. In the sense that their engines will increasingly look to energy sources other than fossil ones. This is according to the words of Alberto Curnis, researcher at the Polytechnic of Milan. The game could therefore be played by liquefied biomethane, vegetable-derived or recycled oils, but also hydrogen produced thanks to energy from renewable sources. To complete the scenario, itdevelopment of electrically powered vehicles. The optimization of space and design could…

DaVinci motor “Dc100”: geometric, but exclusive

Redazione

If you ask a motorcyclist why they prefer an unstable and uncomfortable vehicle like a motorcycle over a comfortable and safe sedan, you always get the same answer: “I like it, I have fun.” In fact, there’s nothing logical about traveling on a vehicle that constantly leaves its occupants exposed to the whims of the weather and environment. This is why those who use two wheels only for logistical reasons, to minimize travel in urban areas, tend to use scooters, holding the same affection for their vehicles as they do…

Electric outboards – Special Macchine Motori

Redazione

“The table published lists around forty models of electric outboard motors, almost all of which were on display at the latest edition of ‘Boot,’ the boat show in Düsseldorf, Germany. With the exception of the three prototypes presented by Mercury, Honda, and Torqueedo, all the other motors should be available on the market and therefore should represent the current European offering in the sector. However, this must be taken with caution. Due to the extreme mechanical simplicity of such units, the actual offering is much richer than what was displayed…

“Hydradig Pro” by JCB, the machine that does almost everything

Redazione

On construction sites and in agricultural businesses, the routine activities to be carried out are always highly diverse, and often, unpredictable tasks are added, either due to accidental reasons or the opportunity to supplement income with extraordinary and contingent work. A good example of this is winter road maintenance, which is only needed in the event of heavy snowfall, making it unplannable but offering interesting income opportunities. Ideally, each job would be performed with dedicated equipment, but even in the most structured construction and agricultural companies, this clashes with the…

Toyota still focuses on the internal combustion engine

Redazione

It is hard to imagine that the world’s largest car manufacturer has a distorted vision of the industry’s future. It is more likely that Toyota’s strong presence in the global market allows the Japanese group to have a privileged focus on the trends shaping the automotive sector. Toyota shares the belief that the future is heading towards the electrification of powertrains, but what sets it apart from many European and American manufacturers is the end point of this evolution. As repeatedly stated, the Asian multinational does not believe that full…
