Toyota, like every other car company currently, is spending a lot of time on creating and improving on electric and hybrid cars. According to autoweek.com, they also have not forgotten to keep working on other technology – and their focus is paying off in the progression of the internal combustion engine.

In order to improve fuel efficiency in vehicles, Toyota is now installing turbochargers and “direct fuel injection” into their cars. With these new additions to their vehicles, engine size is decreasing.

Another trend implemented in Toyota’s vehicles is, “…expanded use of idle-stop technology, which saves fuel by turning off the engine when the car comes to a standstill, and advances in variable valve systems.”

All this technology is Toyota’s attempt to stay ahead in the green automobile market, hoping to become a serious contender in the ring with Chevrolet and Nissan in the worldwide market.

Our auto shipper companies hope for the best for this technology – every little bit helps, especially when it comes to preserving our environment.
