Maybe two strokes are not so bad after all. I personally love the smell of brunt premix.
We now have learned from Orbital News that a major scooter company in Taiwan also has adopted Orbital Direct Injection combustion process. First launched in low volume production in December 2004, the Kymco KDI X-Mode 100 resulted from a 50:50 joint venture* between Orbital and Siemens VDO....
The Kymco KDI X-Mode 100 was the clear winner, “with the lowest CO emissions of the group, and a very close 2nd best within the group for both fuel efficiency (with 50.8 km/litre) and HC+NOx emissions (0.7 gm/km).”
Of the 14 vehicles, the Kymco KDI X-Mode 100 was the only 2 stroke engine product. It competed against both carburetted and Port Fuel Injected (PFI) 4 stroke engines that ranged between 50 and 125 cc displacement.
