AutoExec Summary
Obrist Group’s Champagne Engine is a revolutionary two-cylinder Zero Vibration Generator (ZVG) that runs smoother than a V12, named for its ability to keep a champagne glass still on top. This engine is part of their HyperHybrid drive system, combining combustion with an electric motor for efficient power generation. It uses conventional fuel and avoids the need for large batteries and charging infrastructure. The system delivers low fuel consumption of about 1.5 litres per 100km and a range over 1000km. Its compact, noise-free design features unique counter-rotating crankshafts and a small, efficient battery pack. This technology aims to offer a climate-positive alternative to electric vehicles.
