Weâ€™ve brought you the initial announcement details regarding the VC-Turbo engineâ€”one of Nissanâ€™s forthcoming technologies designed to revolutionize conventional internal combustion motorsâ€”and now we want to take a moment to dive deeper into what the upcoming motor will offer.Â

Slated to appear on a new Infinity QX50 SUV that will first be seen at a November 28th Los Angeles media event, the VC-Turbo utilizes a variable compression ratio system that boosts thermal efficiency of the motor. This will allow future Nissan vehicles, likely including models such as the Murano, to generate more power from a single unit of fuel.

Fresh details on the VC-Turbo reveal that it will utilize fresh software and electronics to achieve its more optimal compression ratios. This solves many of the issues presented by todayâ€™s conventional gasoline engines. Specifically, the new motor will replace bigger 3.5-liter models in the Japanese automakerâ€™s lineup,Â instead existing as an intelligently designed, turbocharged 2.0L four-cylinder.
