Despite what the headlines may say, many companies are still attempting to save the combustion engine, and synthetic fuel is one of our greatest hopes. Synthetic fuel, or eFuel for short, isn’t a new idea, much like electric technology, with the basic principle tracing back decades.
Up until governments around the world started cracking down on emissions, there wasn’t realed to research it further when refined petroleum got the job done just fine. Today the,ough, we’re staring over the edge at an electric abyss, meaning the time has come to explore how synthetic fuel can save our classic machines.
The technology is still in its infancy, but the proposed benefits have companies seeing massive dollar signs, given there are currently 1.3 billion gas-powered cars on the road, with 1 billion expected to still exist by 2050. A major automaker and the world’s largest oil producer are currently lecharge. Will they find the answer to our combustion-related woes? Or are EVs as inevitable as many say?
