BMW name changes aren’t just for the X6, other models to follow

omarrana submitted on 2/28/2008 Official AutoSpies Timestamp: 9:20:07 AM

So you’re probably wondering what’s up with the new badging on the BMW X6.

Honda is investigating ways of recapturing heat energy lost through a car’s exhaust to help generate electricity and power an electric motor for a new generation of ultra-efficient hybrid cars. Conventional internal combustion engines waste a lot of energy in creating heat, but by applying a ‘Rankine cycle,’ a process where hot exhaust gases are used to heat up a water reservoir and create steam to spin a turbine, electricity can be generated.

Agent009 submitted on 2/15/2008 Official AutoSpies Timestamp: 1:24:37 PM
