Foursprung: Two Speed Supercharger Drive System

Antonov displays a two speed supercharger drive system.

While this first commercial application from Antonov's broad range of patented technologies will be demonstrated in two high performance vehicles, a Mercedes and Ford Mustang, the high volume potential for the device lies in its ability to enable engine downsizing, opening up the application of superchargers to mainstream vehicles. Other Antonov technologies on display at Engine Expo that are available for licensing and high volume production include the compact 6-speed automatic transmission system for front wheel drive passenger cars. In January this year, Antonov announced an agreement to develop this transmission with Great Wall Motor Company Limited.
