Crank-Case Conspiracies: Automotive Secrets that Drive Deadly Consumer Choices (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798643348245)

A detailed look at consumer automotive technology and the role of automotive and petroleum company interests that continue to promote internal combustion and petrochemical fuel consumption as relevant and acceptable means of current-day consumer transportation. This book explores the past and present of consumer vehicle drive-trains providing simplified explanations of how each works and fuel-energy computations that will surprise and shock those who believe that miles per gallon is an accurate measure of fuel energy capabilities and efficiency. Modern drive-trains are also evaluated in terms of the total environmental impact from the point of fuel-source origination to final consumption in the consumer vehicle. Future drive-train and transportation technologies are also presented and explored in terms of expected environmental impact.
