Axis Motors is building world first 2-cycle, combustion-electric supercars utilizing novel 2-cycle engine technology, for power, efficiency and sustainability. Adopting a new, highly efficient plug-in hybrid drivetrain. Going back over 100 years, Porsche was one of the pioneers of hybrid electric drivetrains with the first Lohner Mixte, designed by Ferdinand Porsche in 1902. In terms of 2-cycle engine development, we can see prior achievements from General Motors with their X-250 engine, and in modern aircraft applications Through Zoche’s Aero diesel radial 2-stroke engine and Deltahawk diesel 2-stroke engines, for aircraft applications. Although; these engines all adopt positive uniflow type scavenging only, limiting their applications of use due to emissions. We can see developments of modern 2-cycle engines with some success from companies such as Akatees Power; also, but again, these technologies have limited scavenging ability – the main things limiting their commercialization, as well as engine complexity.
