Nope, I disagree. Merging these companies will only dilute the brands and ruin everything. What can’t the companies do now that merging would allow them to do? Subaru only needs some Toyota technology so they sell 20% of themselves to Toyota as an excuse to get the stuff they need. Mazda sells 4% of themselves to Toyota to create an excuse to get the technology they need. In the big picture, Toyota has no need for the rest of Subaru’s and Mazda’s shares, let alone, the entire companies.
I read an article about one month ago,where Toyota and Chevron are working on a new formula for gasoline,which reduces the amount of pollutants in the gasoline… I think they are working on this project at the Tacoma Washington Port of Entry…They’re using this fuel in the port’s vehicles…
I am quite interested with the NA 1.5L 4-cyl engine because the same configuration is pretty much the most popular type of engine here in my country (nearly all car manufacturers has the same engine configuration following the regulations) and Toyota's current 1.5L engine powering the Avanza has been around for around 20 years now with proven reliability & being relatively efficient so having a modern version of it combined with a proper hybrid is the way to go.
RX-8 and rotary engines don't leak oil, they inject oil for lubrication as necessary. RX-8 2004-08 didn't inject well enough, 2009-11 had improved 3 port injection
Maybe mostly a problem when moddifying them for more power, but they are known for cracking around the centering pins which also transported the oil between the halves of the engine. However, one great moddification is to make the main case bolts also work as dowels so that the motor can't shift around and crack at those points.
Toyota sells all over the world. They need to continue producing ICE engines for markets that can't support electrification for the next couple of decades or more. That should allow them to send a percentage of those engines to the US, especially the most efficient and low-emitting versions. I don't think this signals a rebirth of the gas engine.
You’re right, but neither the grid in Europe or the US can handle a significant increase in EVs so all car manufacturers will have to keep contributing ICE vehicles for some time
I've got my Flaimin' Hot Cheetos and my Coke Zero !!! Let's go !!! Kirk, this is such a great video. Most of us are not engineers. 99% of us don't know how ICEs are built. We don't know how ICE technology is advancing, but people, it is !!! For example, check out Robert Mitchell's RUclips channel and his dismantling of Toyota GR Yaris 3 cylinder engine. Search for, "Destruction?! Inside the Blown Toyota GR Yaris Engine." Robert races this engine on the Nurburgring and in this video he talks about how he broke it, which is not the fault of Toyota. The point is that plebeians, like me, get to see this engine inside and out. It's like a fine Swiss watch, simply stunning, producing nearly 300 hp and it's the size of a brown paper grocery bag.
I’m all for ICE evolution in the short run, the issue is a lot of the people complaining about EV’s are the same ones complaining about hybrids and more efficient turbo fours.
@@ryanfraley7113 Complaining about EVs, hybrids, and four cylinder engines? That's a lot of complaining. What do they want? ...meanwhile, the oligarchy flies around on private jets and summers on superyachts.
they say cruise ships put out more emission than cars lol. driving efficiently(low emissions, high miles per gallon , car longveity and low maintenance sort of mixed into it, ) is like endurance racing , avoiding need for pitstops etc, needing to get places on time but doing so efficiently (or whatever speed you want , if you dont care as much about efficiency). this type of driving fun is most safe because its nto as fast as possible but does make you rather aware of driving environment instead of being focused mostly on music/radio/daydreaming/texting, etc driving efficiently is speeding up especially on more downhill-ish roads at optimal fuel level and engine RPM(RotationPerSecond), steering and braking minimally but smoothly. optimal efficiency for toyota 2.4 inline 4 is 2/3 pedal down in 2k-3k rpm, cvt hybrid maintain constant rpm. not sure whats best to do this in: sport mode, fuel level is more, in eco mode its less. use EV mode if optimal combustion level would speed car too much (often, if car isnt letting you do that without the EV mode, it wont let you us EV mode.) use it a bit from a stop for smooth acceleration then when car is rolling use combustion then maybe use it a bit more. smooth acceleration is part of putting less weight on tires at a moment because: according to emissions analytics' .com , consider tire wear dust emissions and how much it cost to replace tires (most people are becoming increasingly even poorer than they already are and you can invest money into bigger money)like those "xenoestrogen endocrine disputing forever chemicals micro plastics" etc. apply less weight on tires and you'll allow more of that weight handling ability to be used for having more grip for endurance-race-pitstop-avoiding momentum preservation driving fun in the name of efficiency. being able to feel how close car is to its grip limit is good for this goal, similar to the lotus-car-enjoyers ideal. for hybruds, battery should only be used in low speed situation because thats where it helps most. putting down power is more efficient at high speed so combustion is good. hybrids lower emissions with electric where it helps most for the least use of these non fully recyclable usually never recycled battery and electric motor stuff (the normally used stuff). yes, mile sper gallon per trip maybe less, by this trick, but longveity of battery is longer ,lower more emissions in part of the mass scale operation of producing hybrids. so accelerate slow in electric from a stop, then make power at most effceint rpm and fuel level for your engine. you can put it in neutral to prevent regenerative braking from eating up your momentum of rolling with no power after acceleration, then put it in drive for regen brake when wanting to brake down at slow pace at around half the regen braking level , so you can brake more fully just in case you underestimated how much you need to brake max regenerative braking. brake beyond the regenerative braking level once in awhile to shave off the rust layer on brake pad before while brake pad rusts off sooner. youtube think flight, julian edgar,etc have videos on improving aerodynamic efficiency of his car.can add anti sway bar , better suspension etc "handling mods" for more momentum around turns, but some of it can make the ride bumpier, louder, etc. cars are not what what they should be, dont waste money on mediocre , make them stop fooling around if they are gonna get your money. hybrid cars are arguably better than electric car because they lower use of combustion and battery mass and all materials overall without adding so much weight. weight worsens road wear damage (repairs cost emissions , money etc) , worsens crash safety for all (except few rich people who can afford super safe cars in the small chance that they are involved in crash and value their lives and have lives we can value). this is why aptera motors originally made diesel hybrid, but now sells electric cars to max profits and reputation as a "environmentally friendly brand." because batteries are not fully recyclable and combustion fuel is based on anaerobic bacteria that regenerates , which is why oil rigs go back to getting oil after abandoning the almost empty oil well years later. this is why arguably only combustion is proper, in rear mid engine weight distribution , rear wheel drive , with limited slip differential for minimal tire wear even in normal driver driving , for preserving momentum around turns more without too much slowing down by lateral (left /rights) g forces tires. 2-3 trips in compact 4 seater for the once in a year taking a minivan full of kids to doctors , is better than minivan all the time just for that rare scenario. yearly family road trip the all those kids can be done with rented van. in fact for most us a 2 seater is enough because theyll be losers with no friends they trust or care about, no kids carefully selected for good genes, no purpose besides not dieng, and money to overpay for low quality social status and desensitizing overdosing on minor temporary novelty, while being a waste of resources and maybe making life worse overall for others. can you prove human caused co2 causes climate change or that its not just the usual climate change malkovich cycles similar to that of known ice ages? check incentives behind claims and who owns the industries of climate change alarmism and oil industry(same guys). environmentalists anti nuclear energy (the only reliable clean energy) , and crash safety laws, CAFE law, makes ironically named "suv" cars and electric cars more easily profitable than the cars thatd actually help. examples: they require less emissions per length width of car but allow larger height. crash safety laws increase arms race for safer cars making people in fewer and fewer cars safer at the cost of most others crash safety and everything else.
@@trumpisastump9382EVs were the dominant technology before ice took over in the 1930s. Very ironic and incorrect that you say that… You must be narrow minded.
Why would you want to save it. Combustion pollutes the air by definition and most of the products of combustion are wasted in heat. Toyota engines are the most efficient but at best only 40% of the fuel burned turns the wheels. In an EV 95% of the battery energy used gets to the wheels.
The 1 and 2gr are legendary. Great power , very minor issues and made to run past the lifespan of the rest of the car. Im upset there getting rid of it. But still many great cars with it and hope there newer engines can match how good that series of engines are
Its crazy how honda is not on board with this yet atleast i always thought they would be the second supporter of combustion engines since they made vtec iconic
The two-rotor rotary engine must be a product of the newly resurrected rotary team launched back in Feb. Heard it uses a dry sump oil system as well as longitudinally mounted for lower center of gravity which is typically only used for sportier applications. Mazda must be seriously thinking of producing the Iconic SP
Not only do electric cars feel the same, they are very expensive. I drive a 23 year old Toyota. If it were electric, I’d have to source a replacement battery which would likely be super expensive due to being super high capacity and proprietary. Hybrids are okay because when those batteries go out after 10-20 years they’re significantly cheaper to replace. Gas engines just need a new aluminum block and you’re good.
Good news! Time to show the world that choice rules over dogma. Of course, we know that Toyota invests also in EVs, but that’s the thing we like about Toyota because they promote all technologies instead of one. We as the consumers get to choose what we want.
Sadly the unelected elites who have the elected politicians on their payroll don't care about saving "fossil fuels", in fact they'd be fine if we use it all up as quickly as possible. This is about power and control, and the sooner us peasants realize this and fight back the better off we'll be. The current goal is to incentive EV's to such a degree that it will no longer be financially viable for car companies to continue producing ICE, and after production goes away for a while...so do the component suppliers. What this means is even if a car company wanted to go back to producing ICE vehicles it would be too expensive and in some cases not even possible. Once ICE is pretty much eradicated worldwide we'll start to see the anti-EV (which in reality is "anti-personal transport) activists unleashed on the world to tell us how bad EV's are for the environment and how personal transport is also socially irresponsible. This is where government steps in and saves the day! How will they do that? Simple..just tax the peons to death to pay for massive public transport projects. The elites will be pleased since they will be the ones reaping the rewards while simultaneously gaining control of movement over the teeming, unwashed masses. If anyone reading this thinks it sounds like paranoid fantasy..I urge you to do some independent research of your own and read between the lines. They aren't quite as upfront with their plans as they were a couple years back, but the info is still out there.
Rotary engines thrive when they are droning / maintaining a steady RPM pace like a generator in a Dam (being driven by water pressure) -- accelerating and decelerating constantly wears them out
I am a bit disappointed in Mazda's statement. I love the technology of the SkyActive-X engines. Now it seems like they have abandoned that in favor of the rotary engine. SkyActive-X was in the past touted as being suitable for a range of fuels, with Mazda even planning to make an engine that could run both on diesel and gasoline. I also like rotary engines, but they are just not efficient. Rotary engines will be a hard sell and when the competition is making their engines more compact, the rotary engines is losing part of its advantage.
Frankly, I don't think they will abandon Skyactiv. It makes no sense. Skyactiv I4 is in their best selling vehicles, which could be turned into hybrids. This is the way.
Otherwise, I might buy Ford Escape PHEV as my next car. It has, essentially, a Mazda engine with a Toyota transaxle. That car should be super reliable.
That 4cyl could possibly be the last and final spirit of the 4AG/3S-GE/2ZZ..please bring it back to the 86/MR2/Celica before we go to the electrified world
Kirk, why don’t you talk how bad was the V6 turbo engines designed by Toyota. You need to cover the good, the bad, and the ugly. What’s going on with Toyota.
There are mechanical watches which don’t rely on batteries. They are available at many price points but only purchased by true watch enthusiasts. Same thing will happen to cars. ICE engines will become the option that’s less convenient but way more fun. People who love cars will buy ICE and people who just want to get to work safely, quickly and comfortably will buy EV.
8:35 Given that the MX30 comes with the "8C", the new Mazda 2 rotor is likely going to be the Rensis successor shown back in the early 2010s known during development as the 16X, with the production version being the 1.6L "16C"
Wish more car companies would just produce RWD 2.0 liter 350-400hp engines that get 30+ mpg on a light vehicle. Add another 100hp electric and a 10kw battery on the transmission that transfers torque better and you have a perfect ride.
@@limitedreach4446 They will stop making engines for vehicles within the next 10-15 years as they are going all EV. Honda gets it. In a changing world you either adapt or get left behind. That is why Toyota, despite the implications of this video, is investing heavily on solid state batteries that can power an EV for 750 miles between charges. If successful, that will change the calculations very significantly and will usher in the inevitable march of EVs.
@@KirkKreifels yeah from the latest business strategy they dont focused on engine again sadly but again we dont know when CEO is changed also change direction. i think it is misleading for Honda in mibe direction
I'm 100% down for a RWD or 4WD rotary / rotary hybrid (option). Though i'd love to see them run a little more efficiently than the old rotary motors. Electric LOOKS promising, but it's absolutely NOT there yet. Especially with current battery tech AND electrical infrastructure.
Most large auto manufacturers are leaps and bounds better financially than every Chinese manufacturer. If it wasn’t for Chinese subsidies none would get off the ground.
Exactly the same stuff was being said about Japanese auto companies 20 years ago. Now everybody loves them and up until last year, lots of people were still buying them. Now it's the turn of the Chinese. Loathe it or love it, it's just the reality. Subsidised or not, they make better cars, sure enough some of the companies are making crap, but BYD for example is now outselling Tesla and Tesla quality is a joke. Have you looked closely at a cybertruck yet?
@@simonpaine2347 the problem is that with the heavy subsidies people aren’t realizing Chinas intent is to drive out manufacturers from those countries and deliver a financial blow to those countries. Their purpose isn’t one of competition, it’s one of destruction. You’d have to be pretty ignorant to want that to happen to your domestic industries.
@@miraphycs7377 yep, North America is still good. So good that it's supporting / bailing out the rest of the world......for now! Check on current inventory levels and sales in NA are now slowing as well. By the end of the year there will be a truer, more accurate picture of the overall market performance.
Rotary engines, always been a problem, we need a proper comparison with conventional fossil fuel engines. The rotor tips, are trying to make a seal at quite a velocity. I don’t think they beat the 20% mark for efficiency (measured as rotating shaft energy out/energy put in to get it). I have a hybrid, because ICE make great boilers. I want to be able to heat my car cabin to the max, on wet or wet & cold days. I realised I could never afford sufficient battery capacity to do this, so opted for a car with a ‘boiler’. Because essentially an ICE produces heat for free, it isn’t as awfully inefficient in practice, because I can use a heater a lot of the time. So, maybe for me, my use-case, a gasoline car might actually reach 30% or more efficiency, as I have a use for the heat. If a micro-steam turbine could be attached, generating electricity for an attached electric motor/generator, any ICE would suddenly be bumped to 50% or more efficiency. But to my knowledge, no such research has ever occurred, despite steam turbines being bog-standard technology (think nuclear energy generation, big ones!). I dunno, I feel companies are thrashing around seeking a homogenous direction? Take care all.
the Subaru Crosstrek actually had a 2.0L hybrid engine under the hood. Why the camo the outside for it who knows unless it has some sort of styling changes.
I heard the Skyactiv-X was supposed to save ICE. What happened to it? Hyper efficiency with ICE is already possible if you choose to delve into diesel hybrids.
Toyota and Honda really need to come together to pioneer the expansion of hydrogen powered vehicles, and now there’s also Volvo on the commercial side, who could also be a huge backer of hydrogen expansion. I also believe Toyota and Porsche should be working together to find greener options for ICE vehicles. Common interests that will only benefit the companies involved.
I'm all about cleaner mobility, but I read that that E-Fuel developed by Porsche is about $40 per gallon right now. I've never in my life seen a hydrogen pump and hydrogen is used to make mega bombs for a reason....it's extremely explosive. I do know it's being used for larger commercial trucks. My next vehicle will most likely be the Kia EV3 or Toyota Compact Cruiser EV. I'll take an EV any day over these new turbo 4 bangers and defective turbo V6's.
@@N20Joe lol. Dude nobody cares that’s yesterday news. Can you walk into a Toyota dealership and buy two sports cars and an all-wheel-drive turbo charged hatchback overland and turbocharged trucks ? Yes Mazda can’t even relate .
Every mazda crossover handles way better than a Toyota and typically Lexus too. Far better feedback than most Toyotas. A Miata is still more fun to me than all the GR models... However the GR yaris would probably be my jam.
@@KirkKreifels unfortunately people aren’t buying crossovers for handling so that’s not a high talking point. They are brought for comfort and feature and size before “ handling “ yeah it’s a cool conversation point for us car enthusiasts but it’s not a buying point. Let’s be real. Power matters more than handling for daily use Miata being fun to you that’s okay I can’t debate your option but I would take a GR86 over a Miata personally just on looks alone. I would take any GR product over any Mazda product.
I'm not excited because manual transmissions are being forced into obsolescence. It's lightweight, simple, reliable, easily repaired, efficient (direct drive), and keeps the driver aware and engaged.
@@KirkKreifelsWarmth causes extra evaporation, which leads to drought and extra water vapor and energy in the atmosphere which can increase the power of storms. Warmth melts ice sheets, which rises sea level. Somehow, in the US, this is a political statement, and elsewhere it's just science. We'll probably be alright for the next few years, but it's our children I worry about.
There is no indication that the alternative fuels which could be utilized for these ICE engines are viable on a large enough scale or that they make any economic sense.
Out of three, Subaru is only one that are production ready ,they officially announced plan to launch new boxer hybrid around end of this year to early next year , Toyota are in mid to late prototype stages ,silver top one will definitely come to replace dynamic force family with in 2-3 years where I doubt what Toyota next model will receive that hot 2 liter turbo 4 banger red top , and for Mazda rotary seem to still in very early prototype concept ,I not even sure when it will go to production stage.
I remember some years back maybe about five years ago three years ago Honda and Toyota were talking about the Turbo’s. I thought it was a great idea to have an electric turbo charger, do you have any idea why that just dropped off the face of the planet?
Wow, Amazing that Toyota managed to add 7.3 HP to their new engine whilst also achieving 56 mpg. Yawn. Such a shame that almost no one under the age of 40 will be buying ICE cars in 2030 and Toyota will lose $1,200 on every vehicle they sell (average). Every cent spent on ICE R&D is a waste in a world dominated by BEVs, hence why the Chinese abandoned ICE car R&D last year !!!!
INNOVATION Carbon Hydrogen cars Toyota,Subaru and Mazda we watch it live.90 to 140 kilometers per hour or more.They already test it and test runs for 33 hours the Toyota car this year in a race track
Whatever the technology, drivers will always prefer 2-3 minutes filling at the gas stations rather than hours of charging plus logistical puzzles. Period.
I've been saying that eventually Toyota is going to take Mazda's i6 and use it in the supra. Hopefully we are not goin to end with: Mazda=Buick Subaru=jeep
Hey Kirk !! Seeing a lot of reports on 3.4 twin turbo engines losing bearings in every platform that carries this motor , Tundra , lx 600, LS . Is Gx 550 next ?
No yellow Priuses. The unfortunate effect of the Prius being so efficient and reliable is it became the choice for Taxis. Prius owners protest. I god rid of my 2015 partly cuz of this
Hey Kirk, vehicle identity won't matter much in an autonomous vehicle (near) future, at least for transportation vehicles, sure fill your boots on the track LoL Our children will wonder why their parents wanted to risk life and limb rather than summoning Transport-as-a-Service from their communication devices. As we move from 1 percent to 2 percent and on to 20% TaaS usage economies of scale for traditional ICE OEMs will fall off a cliff elevating ICE production costs and finishing this story. It doesn't much matter what a minority of enthusiast want or think they want, ICE will be consigned to the history books.

I'm happy with the Toyota 2.5 four. I guess I'm happy that they're trying to improve it but the thing is already really efficient.
That gt4 was something man
I am quite interested with the NA 1.5L 4-cyl engine because the same configuration is pretty much the most popular type of engine here in my country (nearly all car manufacturers has the same engine configuration following the regulations) and Toyota's current 1.5L engine powering the Avanza has been around for around 20 years now with proven reliability & being relatively efficient so having a modern version of it combined with a proper hybrid is the way to go.
I'm still waiting for Mazda to bring over a 2.5L Skyactiv X engine to the states...hopefully as a full hybrid too. One can dream :')
RX-8 and rotary engines don't leak oil, they inject oil for lubrication as necessary. RX-8 2004-08 didn't inject well enough, 2009-11 had improved 3 port injection
Maybe mostly a problem when moddifying them for more power, but they are known for cracking around the centering pins which also transported the oil between the halves of the engine. However, one great moddification is to make the main case bolts also work as dowels so that the motor can't shift around and crack at those points.

Toyota sells all over the world. They need to continue producing ICE engines for markets that can't support electrification for the next couple of decades or more. That should allow them to send a percentage of those engines to the US, especially the most efficient and low-emitting versions. I don't think this signals a rebirth of the gas engine.
Long live ICE!
Rebirth? If I'm not mistaken, over 90% of vehicles sold in the U.S. this year have internal combustion engines.
You’re right, but neither the grid in Europe or the US can handle a significant increase in EVs so all car manufacturers will have to keep contributing ICE vehicles for some time
Geely and BYD are releasing hybrids that are cheaper and MORE efficient than anything coming out of Japan.
@@rattusfinkus you can tell they're cheaper too!
I've got my Flaimin' Hot Cheetos and my Coke Zero !!! Let's go !!! Kirk, this is such a great video. Most of us are not engineers. 99% of us don't know how ICEs are built. We don't know how ICE technology is advancing, but people, it is !!! For example, check out Robert Mitchell's RUclips channel and his dismantling of Toyota GR Yaris 3 cylinder engine. Search for, "Destruction?! Inside the Blown Toyota GR Yaris Engine." Robert races this engine on the Nurburgring and in this video he talks about how he broke it, which is not the fault of Toyota. The point is that plebeians, like me, get to see this engine inside and out. It's like a fine Swiss watch, simply stunning, producing nearly 300 hp and it's the size of a brown paper grocery bag.
I’m all for ICE evolution in the short run, the issue is a lot of the people complaining about EV’s are the same ones complaining about hybrids and more efficient turbo fours.
@@ryanfraley7113 Complaining about EVs, hybrids, and four cylinder engines? That's a lot of complaining. What do they want? ...meanwhile, the oligarchy flies around on private jets and summers on superyachts.
@@davidhunternyc1I know ICE will be necessary for a long time but some of the Mopar No Car crowd on RUclips is crazy. 🤣🤣🤣
they say cruise ships put out more emission than cars lol. driving efficiently(low emissions, high miles per gallon , car longveity and low maintenance sort of mixed into it, ) is like endurance racing , avoiding need for pitstops etc, needing to get places on time but doing so efficiently (or whatever speed you want , if you dont care as much about efficiency). this type of driving fun is most safe because its nto as fast as possible but does make you rather aware of driving environment instead of being focused mostly on music/radio/daydreaming/texting, etc
driving efficiently is speeding up especially on more downhill-ish roads at optimal fuel level and engine RPM(RotationPerSecond), steering and braking minimally but smoothly. optimal efficiency for toyota 2.4 inline 4 is 2/3 pedal down in 2k-3k rpm, cvt hybrid maintain constant rpm. not sure whats best to do this in: sport mode, fuel level is more, in eco mode its less. use EV mode if optimal combustion level would speed car too much (often, if car isnt letting you do that without the EV mode, it wont let you us EV mode.) use it a bit from a stop for smooth acceleration then when car is rolling use combustion then maybe use it a bit more. smooth acceleration is part of putting less weight on tires at a moment because:
according to emissions analytics' .com , consider tire wear dust emissions and how much it cost to replace tires (most people are becoming increasingly even poorer than they already are and you can invest money into bigger money)like those "xenoestrogen endocrine disputing forever chemicals micro plastics" etc. apply less weight on tires and you'll allow more of that weight handling ability to be used for having more grip for endurance-race-pitstop-avoiding momentum preservation driving fun in the name of efficiency. being able to feel how close car is to its grip limit is good for this goal, similar to the lotus-car-enjoyers ideal.
for hybruds, battery should only be used in low speed situation because thats where it helps most. putting down power is more efficient at high speed so combustion is good. hybrids lower emissions with electric where it helps most for the least use of these non fully recyclable usually never recycled battery and electric motor stuff (the normally used stuff). yes, mile sper gallon per trip maybe less, by this trick, but longveity of battery is longer ,lower more emissions in part of the mass scale operation of producing hybrids. so accelerate slow in electric from a stop, then make power at most effceint rpm and fuel level for your engine.
you can put it in neutral to prevent regenerative braking from eating up your momentum of rolling with no power after acceleration, then put it in drive for regen brake when wanting to brake down at slow pace at around half the regen braking level , so you can brake more fully just in case you underestimated how much you need to brake max regenerative braking. brake beyond the regenerative braking level once in awhile to shave off the rust layer on brake pad before while brake pad rusts off sooner.
youtube think flight, julian edgar,etc have videos on improving aerodynamic efficiency of his car.can add anti sway bar , better suspension etc "handling mods" for more momentum around turns, but some of it can make the ride bumpier, louder, etc.
cars are not what what they should be, dont waste money on mediocre , make them stop fooling around if they are gonna get your money.
hybrid cars are arguably better than electric car because they lower use of combustion and battery mass and all materials overall without adding so much weight. weight worsens road wear damage (repairs cost emissions , money etc) , worsens crash safety for all (except few rich people who can afford super safe cars in the small chance that they are involved in crash and value their lives and have lives we can value). this is why aptera motors originally made diesel hybrid, but now sells electric cars to max profits and reputation as a "environmentally friendly brand."
because batteries are not fully recyclable and combustion fuel is based on anaerobic bacteria that regenerates , which is why oil rigs go back to getting oil after abandoning the almost empty oil well years later. this is why arguably only combustion is proper, in rear mid engine weight distribution , rear wheel drive , with limited slip differential for minimal tire wear even in normal driver driving , for preserving momentum around turns more without too much slowing down by lateral (left /rights) g forces tires.
2-3 trips in compact 4 seater for the once in a year taking a minivan full of kids to doctors , is better than minivan all the time just for that rare scenario. yearly family road trip the all those kids can be done with rented van. in fact for most us a 2 seater is enough because theyll be losers with no friends they trust or care about, no kids carefully selected for good genes, no purpose besides not dieng, and money to overpay for low quality social status and desensitizing overdosing on minor temporary novelty, while being a waste of resources and maybe making life worse overall for others.
can you prove human caused co2 causes climate change or that its not just the usual climate change malkovich cycles similar to that of known ice ages? check incentives behind claims and who owns the industries of climate change alarmism and oil industry(same guys). environmentalists anti nuclear energy (the only reliable clean energy) , and crash safety laws, CAFE law, makes ironically named "suv" cars and electric cars more easily profitable than the cars thatd actually help. examples: they require less emissions per length width of car but allow larger height. crash safety laws increase arms race for safer cars making people in fewer and fewer cars safer at the cost of most others crash safety and everything else.
I hope Toyota can save ICE 🙏🏾
Yes, and outhouses as well.
The problem is the people who think V8’s should be in everything
@@trumpisastump9382EVs were the dominant technology before ice took over in the 1930s. Very ironic and incorrect that you say that… You must be narrow minded.

Give me a v8, twin turbo v6 or at least a turbo i6... or nothing.
Why would you want to save it. Combustion pollutes the air by definition and most of the products of combustion are wasted in heat. Toyota engines are the most efficient but at best only 40% of the fuel burned turns the wheels. In an EV 95% of the battery energy used gets to the wheels.
I'm waiting for them to use a jet pack engine to drive the generator in a "hybrid."
My 3.5L toyota will be around for many years to come. 😂😅 Built to last!
The 1 and 2gr are legendary. Great power , very minor issues and made to run past the lifespan of the rest of the car. Im upset there getting rid of it. But still many great cars with it and hope there newer engines can match how good that series of engines are
Hello Mr Kreifels could you please investigate this GR Corolla engine fire issue
Its crazy how honda is not on board with this yet atleast i always thought they would be the second supporter of combustion engines since they made vtec iconic
The two-rotor rotary engine must be a product of the newly resurrected rotary team launched back in Feb. Heard it uses a dry sump oil system as well as longitudinally mounted for lower center of gravity which is typically only used for sportier applications. Mazda must be seriously thinking of producing the Iconic SP
Not only do electric cars feel the same, they are very expensive. I drive a 23 year old Toyota. If it were electric, I’d have to source a replacement battery which would likely be super expensive due to being super high capacity and proprietary. Hybrids are okay because when those batteries go out after 10-20 years they’re significantly cheaper to replace. Gas engines just need a new aluminum block and you’re good.
The new rotors based on X16 design are 1.6L rating for dual rotor setups. Each housing is 800cc
A25A-FXS for now does good job👍
Good news! Time to show the world that choice rules over dogma. Of course, we know that Toyota invests also in EVs, but that’s the thing we like about Toyota because they promote all technologies instead of one. We as the consumers get to choose what we want.
Sadly the unelected elites who have the elected politicians on their payroll don't care about saving "fossil fuels", in fact they'd be fine if we use it all up as quickly as possible. This is about power and control, and the sooner us peasants realize this and fight back the better off we'll be. The current goal is to incentive EV's to such a degree that it will no longer be financially viable for car companies to continue producing ICE, and after production goes away for a while...so do the component suppliers. What this means is even if a car company wanted to go back to producing ICE vehicles it would be too expensive and in some cases not even possible. Once ICE is pretty much eradicated worldwide we'll start to see the anti-EV (which in reality is "anti-personal transport) activists unleashed on the world to tell us how bad EV's are for the environment and how personal transport is also socially irresponsible. This is where government steps in and saves the day! How will they do that? Simple..just tax the peons to death to pay for massive public transport projects. The elites will be pleased since they will be the ones reaping the rewards while simultaneously gaining control of movement over the teeming, unwashed masses. If anyone reading this thinks it sounds like paranoid fantasy..I urge you to do some independent research of your own and read between the lines. They aren't quite as upfront with their plans as they were a couple years back, but the info is still out there.
Rotary engines thrive when they are droning / maintaining a steady RPM pace like a generator in a Dam (being driven by water pressure) -- accelerating and decelerating constantly wears them out
High pressure turbo engines are time bombs, ESPECIALLY when people don't understand turbo protocols.
toyota is having fun over there
INNOVATION Carbon Hydrogen cars Toyota,Subaru and Mazda we watch it live.
I am a bit disappointed in Mazda's statement. I love the technology of the SkyActive-X engines. Now it seems like they have abandoned that in favor of the rotary engine. SkyActive-X was in the past touted as being suitable for a range of fuels, with Mazda even planning to make an engine that could run both on diesel and gasoline. I also like rotary engines, but they are just not efficient. Rotary engines will be a hard sell and when the competition is making their engines more compact, the rotary engines is losing part of its advantage.
Frankly, I don't think they will abandon Skyactiv. It makes no sense. Skyactiv I4 is in their best selling vehicles, which could be turned into hybrids. This is the way.
Otherwise, I might buy Ford Escape PHEV as my next car. It has, essentially, a Mazda engine with a Toyota transaxle. That car should be super reliable.
I want a bright yellow Prius with the 2025 Camry AWD Hybrid 232 HP powertrain while still getting 50mpg. Toyota, that shouldn't be too hard right?
That 4cyl could possibly be the last and final spirit of the 4AG/3S-GE/2ZZ..please bring it back to the 86/MR2/Celica before we go to the electrified world
The manufactures who do this will have my business forever.
Kirk, why don’t you talk how bad was the V6 turbo engines designed by Toyota. You need to cover the good, the bad, and the ugly. What’s going on with Toyota.
Closed deck 4 cylinder or open deck, what all tech and what’s the rotating assembly built to handle?
Very interesting stuff, great video Captain Kirk. 🖖🏼
There are mechanical watches which don’t rely on batteries. They are available at many price points but only purchased by true watch enthusiasts.
Same thing will happen to cars. ICE engines will become the option that’s less convenient but way more fun. People who love cars will buy ICE and people who just want to get to work safely, quickly and comfortably will buy EV.
Assuming that the battery 🔋 does ignite and catch fire.
Visually, that Toyota 2.0T looks like the 4G63 from the Evo.
Interesting that Toyota mentions the V10 LFA in their slideshow of icons, but not the 2JZ of the Supra. Not sure what that means 🤔
Yeah, they seemed to focus only on four cylinders... but the lfa made the list lol
8:35 Given that the MX30 comes with the "8C", the new Mazda 2 rotor is likely going to be the Rensis successor shown back in the early 2010s known during development as the 16X, with the production version being the 1.6L "16C"
Wish more car companies would just produce RWD 2.0 liter 350-400hp engines that get 30+ mpg on a light vehicle. Add another 100hp electric and a 10kw battery on the transmission that transfers torque better and you have a perfect ride.
God bless..just wait for honda nissan and mitsu go joined the teams.
Mitsubishi did announce they are going to develop new ICE motors in their recent dealers convention.
Honda has abandoned ICE. They want to be fully fuel cell or BEV by 2040 :/
Honda is an engine company, they’ll never stop making them.
@@limitedreach4446 They will stop making engines for vehicles within the next 10-15 years as they are going all EV. Honda gets it. In a changing world you either adapt or get left behind. That is why Toyota, despite the implications of this video, is investing heavily on solid state batteries that can power an EV for 750 miles between charges. If successful, that will change the calculations very significantly and will usher in the inevitable march of EVs.
@@KirkKreifels yeah from the latest business strategy they dont focused on engine again sadly but again we dont know when CEO is changed also change direction. i think it is misleading for Honda in mibe direction
I'm 100% down for a RWD or 4WD rotary / rotary hybrid (option). Though i'd love to see them run a little more efficiently than the old rotary motors.
Electric LOOKS promising, but it's absolutely NOT there yet. Especially with current battery tech AND electrical infrastructure.
I'd like to see a rotary to battery to wheels hybrid like Honda wants to do avoiding the spin-up lag in the Honda.
This could really make the next Mazda 6 truly amazing. I'm keeping my Stinger until that car is out.
Most large auto manufacturers are leaps and bounds better financially than every Chinese manufacturer. If it wasn’t for Chinese subsidies none would get off the ground.
Exactly the same stuff was being said about Japanese auto companies 20 years ago. Now everybody loves them and up until last year, lots of people were still buying them. Now it's the turn of the Chinese. Loathe it or love it, it's just the reality. Subsidised or not, they make better cars, sure enough some of the companies are making crap, but BYD for example is now outselling Tesla and Tesla quality is a joke. Have you looked closely at a cybertruck yet?
@@simonpaine2347 the problem is that with the heavy subsidies people aren’t realizing Chinas intent is to drive out manufacturers from those countries and deliver a financial blow to those countries. Their purpose isn’t one of competition, it’s one of destruction. You’d have to be pretty ignorant to want that to happen to your domestic industries.

By the end of the year there will be a truer, more accurate picture of the overall market performance.
Toyota is over 200 billion in debt, largest debt of any company in the world because of lawsuits, recalls , warrenty repairs, and campaigns.
What I would like to see is the old school car/truck/suv with three engine choices without having to buy a special model.
Noticably missing are Honda and Nissan. I'm very happy with the 1.5T in my Honda. It pushes 40 mpg. Still much less than my aging PHEV.
What about chassis dynamics tuning differences, and efficiency differences? EVs are not just about UX and UI
Rotary engines, always been a problem, we need a proper comparison with conventional fossil fuel engines. The rotor tips, are trying to make a seal at quite a velocity. I don’t think they beat the 20% mark for efficiency (measured as rotating shaft energy out/energy put in to get it). I have a hybrid, because ICE make great boilers. I want to be able to heat my car cabin to the max, on wet or wet & cold days. I realised I could never afford sufficient battery capacity to do this, so opted for a car with a ‘boiler’. Because essentially an ICE produces heat for free, it isn’t as awfully inefficient in practice, because I can use a heater a lot of the time. So, maybe for me, my use-case, a gasoline car might actually reach 30% or more efficiency, as I have a use for the heat. If a micro-steam turbine could be attached, generating electricity for an attached electric motor/generator, any ICE would suddenly be bumped to 50% or more efficiency. But to my knowledge, no such research has ever occurred, despite steam turbines being bog-standard technology (think nuclear energy generation, big ones!). I dunno, I feel companies are thrashing around seeking a homogenous direction? Take care all.
The current Toyota 2.5 has been pretty impressive. 8 injectors 👍
the Subaru Crosstrek actually had a 2.0L hybrid engine under the hood. Why the camo the outside for it who knows unless it has some sort of styling changes.
I heard the Skyactiv-X was supposed to save ICE. What happened to it? Hyper efficiency with ICE is already possible if you choose to delve into diesel hybrids.
I mean, the Rotary would be a great option for hydrogen, the clean burning and better combustion would be a dream for Rotory.
Toyota and Honda really need to come together to pioneer the expansion of hydrogen powered vehicles, and now there’s also Volvo on the commercial side, who could also be a huge backer of hydrogen expansion. I also believe Toyota and Porsche should be working together to find greener options for ICE vehicles. Common interests that will only benefit the companies involved.
I'm all about cleaner mobility, but I read that that E-Fuel developed by Porsche is about $40 per gallon right now. I've never in my life seen a hydrogen pump and hydrogen is used to make mega bombs for a reason....it's extremely explosive. I do know it's being used for larger commercial trucks. My next vehicle will most likely be the Kia EV3 or Toyota Compact Cruiser EV. I'll take an EV any day over these new turbo 4 bangers and defective turbo V6's.

There is no indication that the alternative fuels which could be utilized for these ICE engines are viable on a large enough scale or that they make any economic sense.
Out of three, Subaru is only one that are production ready ,they officially announced plan to launch new boxer hybrid around end of this year to early next year , Toyota are in mid to late prototype stages ,silver top one will definitely come to replace dynamic force family with in 2-3 years where I doubt what Toyota next model will receive that hot 2 liter turbo 4 banger red top , and for Mazda rotary seem to still in very early prototype concept ,I not even sure when it will go to production stage.
Forget carbon, ICE doesn't make sense because of the ridiculous complexity, number of parts, cost to run and maintain and inferior performance.
I remember some years back maybe about five years ago three years ago Honda and Toyota were talking about the Turbo’s. I thought it was a great idea to have an electric turbo charger, do you have any idea why that just dropped off the face of the planet?

As we move from 1 percent to 2 percent and on to 20% TaaS usage economies of scale for traditional ICE OEMs will fall off a cliff elevating ICE production costs and finishing this story. It doesn't much matter what a minority of enthusiast want or think they want, ICE will be consigned to the history books.
