Infiniti 2.0-Liter Vc-Turbo Engine: World First Power

The VC-Turbo engine is the world's first production-ready variable compression ratio engine that will be available in INFINITI models in 2018. It uses a multi-link system to vary the compression ratio between 8:1 for power and 14:1 for efficiency. INFINITI has been developing the VC-Turbo technology since 1996 and has tested over 100 prototypes, logging over 3 million kilometers of road testing.
