    I am a retired Toyota/Lexus tech.
    Best engine ever built from Toyota has to be the 4.7 lt in the GX470
    The 4AFE in the older Corollas was bulletproof as well.
    5.7 in the Tundra is almost indestructible.

    They need the turbos to extract the thermal efficiency from the exhaust. You can get more boost than back pressure easily at lower cruising speeds and with DI you can run stoich so there is no FE loss as long as you're not demanding more torque than needed to accelerate reasonably

      @@0HOON0 That's because most of the time the engine is off-boost and is not benefitting from the reduced pumping loss caused by the positive intake manifold pressure. In a hybrid the engine operates at a different load point than what's required so it could run at just slightly positive boost to fully take advantage of the efficiency gains.

      A turbo generator could turn exhaust waste heat into electricity to further charge the traction battery, helping to later accelerate, reducing fuel consumption and lowering emissions further, in addition to brake regeneration which does the same.

    Thoughts: Turbos allow equal output with smaller displacement, slower average engine speed, less frictional and pumping losses, keep the average RPM closer to optimum BMEP. Basic stuff. Turbochargers have been continuously refined over about the last 60 years. I’d say turbochargers don’t add any excessive stress to any engine unless at 90% to full power, in other words, infrequently.
    Hybrid and PHEV drivetrains will potentially extend ICE reliability and longevity by up to half again. (Example: ONLY ~30% of my miles in my PHEV are propelled by the ICE, and virtually no miles in stop and go / start stop situations.)

      Understand your points.
      Couple thoughts in response: Longevity today is often dictated by regulators. How long can you get spare parts - including replacement batteries? How long is it legal to register the vehicle? How much does it cost to dispose of batteries and other toxic parts that are no longer usable?
      The laws of physics, Toyota and consumers don't get to decide modern product longevity - bureaucrats do.

    • @ChrisRobato
      @ChrisRobato 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The problem is that dealing with today's economy regs require lighter engine reciprocating and rotating masses, which means lighter pistons, valves, connecting rods, crankshafts etc,. Whereas for turbos, you need these parts beefed up which makes them heavier. That means overall your 2024 turbo engine has lighter thinner parts compared to the beefier parts within a '90s engine even if the '90s engine is normally aspirated. Second issue is to improve fuel economy we are using 0w oils instead of 5w or 10w, which also causes oil to burn off faster. Third is that to reduce engine friction, piston rings are thinner, looser, which increases fuel escaping to the oil crankcase during the compression stroke, causing fuel dilution. Note that oil is already light weight. All three work and cascade their effects together. A turbo engine has higher heat which burns lighter oil faster while increased compression from boost forces more fuel through the thinner piston rings into the evaporating lighter oil.

    Not having a 2.0L NA is the confusing part for me. There will be a big gap between the 1.5NA hybrid (150-180hp) and the 1.5T hybrid (250+hp). And that gap is where most of their current products are (Corolla cross hybrid, C-HR, UX, Camry hybrid, RAV4 hybrid, NX, ES etc.). A 150-160hp 2.0NA and 220-240hp in hybrid form makes a lot of sense.
    And I don't think just increasing the battery size on the 1.5NA hybrid solves the problem. They have to account for drivability at low state of charge, for example on a continuous uphill gradient. Once the battery runs out there will only be 130hp left and that's insufficient in a K platform car. PHEVs can get away with this since their batteries can last a lot longer under heavy load.

    I don’t trust turbos that much, especially on a tiny engine. I understand if its 3.5 Liter V6, then maybe, but a small maybe. My brother has a 1.4 Ecotec turbo in a Chevy Cruze. That Engine generates so much heat that it melted the freaking coolant reservoir and it started leaking coolant everywhere. The Turbos will force the engine to generate excess heat at the expense of reducing its lifespan. Sure, you might get more power and torque, but it’s not worth it if we speak about reliability. Naturally Aspirated Engines last longer because they dont have to be forced to produce more power. My cars engine is 120k miles and doesn’t burn oil. No turbo. I keep up with maintenance, do fluid flushes and oil changes, keep the engine breathing clean air. I don’t wait till 15000 miles to change the air filter, I do it every 7500 miles or sooner. I have a 2014 Nissan Sentra which is notorious for transmission problems. I will be taking it in soon for new front struts, because New England roads are “in very good condition”. I will be on my third set of struts by now. Two of them cost around $1100 so thats a little ouch on my part. Though for some cars struts are even more expensive. So that aside, tiny engines with turbos will work much harder and generate excess heat under the hood, not to mention they will blow up faster. I had to learn that the hard way, when I took my brother’s car when all freaking lights lit up on the dash and the car was dying. Took it to the shop, it started misfiring on the mechanic, luckily only spark plugs were damaged. Got those replaced and seems to be working fine now. Turbos are an unnecessary stress for an engine. If you want race cars go get one specifically made to withstand high pressures. Dont put turbos on tiny engines, or it’s going to be a big flop. Toyota messed up with those engines in 2007 Camrys, it would seem they want to repeat similar mistakes with the turbos. Personally I wouldn’t advise that, but I am not a CEO of Toyota, and cant tell them nothing. I am also no mechanic either. So my words for some might not matter at all, and thats fine, I am ok with that.

So I will keep my word, and will do. So I apologize If you know more than I do. So thanks for clarifying.

    If Toyota can switch production quickly in response to market needs, then once gas prices drop below $2 gallon in USA they can easily switchover to mass producing F series V8's for the coming Lexus F-SUV's. . . Is that right?

    This sounds like a detuned G series 1.5 liter 3 cylinder turbo. Think of the engine in the GR Corolla but making much less HP. This is also derived from the three cylinder engine of the JDM Yaris (not the venerable 1.5 liter 4 other regions have.). This is to be expected as we have seen with other companies with 1.5 turbos. However other companies started earlier giving them a headstart weeding out the bugs in their engines. My opinion is to get the 2.5 liter in hybrid or non hybrid form now before Toyota makes the inevitable transition.

    Long time Toyota owner, I no longer trust Toyota due to falsifying crash tests and EPA tests, telling customers they could change the oil at 10k miles when these engines have low tension piston rings which have lead to early engine failure. Toyota also says the automatic transmission fluid is good for 60k miles - good luck with that myth too. Nope, Not buying a new Toyota. I’m happy with my 2016 Avalon and 2020 Land Cruiser.

    It does not make a lot sence if TOYOTA is going to keep the 2.5L in the next gen REV as it will look like another facelift for the current gen vehicle. The purpose of these new powertrains are not only keep up with other competitors like Nissan, Honda or BYD but also leapfoward in the hybrid game. REV is not a Camery, it is the top priority model for the company, it is going to be the first model to use the 1.5L turbo I think. The Corolla will be the first model to use the NA 1.5L. Conservatively they probably will give the current gen REV and Corolla another year just be safe. But I think they will publish these new models at the early next year due to the intese competition of electrification.

    1.5 turbo does not make sense. . Effective emissions of phev are also very low. They are just adding unreliability with this move. Also already like 5l/100km already.

    Toyota is the company to make it work but Im worried about the larger vehicles in the lineup like the new 4runner. That vehicle right now the symbol of reliability but the 4 cylinder engine might be stretched thin. Definitely will need more maintenance than the V6 its coming off of. Hope it works out so i can think about purchasing one. The new design looks tough!
