Governmental and consumer pressures necessitate both vehicle downsizing and powertrain efficiency improvement to achieve future fuel economy goals. A powertrain hardware overview is pressented which reviews refinement to current powerplants and transmissions, and identifies potential future componentry which may be required to assure that these economy goals are met and the automobile remains a viable element of the American transportation system.
