The same is true for Mercedes-Benz, which will use the show to unveil its DiesOtto powertrain in the F700 concept sedan (“F” denotes a research vehicle). The engine defies conventional gearhead wisdom, producing 238 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque while still managing an estimated 39 mpg—all from a 1.8-liter engine that runs on conventional gasoline—no synthetic fuels.

The end result is a small, fuel-efficient engine with enough grunt to power a large car, in this case the five-door F700, which is a research vehicle similar in size to the Mercedes S-class luxury sedan.
