It salvages the heat wasted in the exhaust (as much as 80% of heat energy) and uses a steam piston to relay that power to the crankshaft. The steam circuit produces and of torque at peak (for a 1.8 Straight-4 engine), yielding an estimated 15% gain in fuel efficiency. Unlike gas-electric hybrids, these gains increase at higher, steadier speeds.
