By now, itâ€™s probably safe to assume that we have all heard about the 2019 INFINITI QX50 and its world's-first production-ready variable compression ratio engine. However, it can be hard to understand what that mouthful of words actually meansâ€”especially if youâ€™re not fluent in automotive jargon (and few people are). Letâ€™s demystify this transmission witchcraft, shall we?
Â
After 20 years of development, Nissanâ€™s luxury brand is unleashing the advanced 2.0-liter VC-Turbo this year in select models. This new proprietary powertrain utilizes a multi-link system to automatically raise or lower the reach of the pistonâ€™s stroke to optimize for either energy or efficiency.

Utilizing the Harmonic Drive reduction gear, the vehicle can predict the required quotient and instantaneously adapt with no additional input from the driver. In layman's terms, this motor is smarter than your average four-cylinder. It seamlessly adjusts to different variables in order to provide instant access to power and torque when you need it.

To further impress, because this innovative mechanism is continuously transforming based on road conditions to optimize the driving experience, it is currently targeting an improved fuel economy of up to 27% over competitor models.
