Synthetic fuels, also known as eFuels, are on everyone's lips today. They offer the opportunity to operate combustion engines in the future without additional CO2 emissions. But can old cars and their engines cope with these new fuels? Does the technology suffer or does it even work better? AMAG Classic, together with EMPA and Motorex AG, is conducting a comprehensive study to find out exactly that.
