Abstract
The present spark ignition, reciprocating piston, gasoline engine is examined against the basic requirements for an automotive powerplant. The important requirement of emission control is shown to affect these basic requirements. The emission potential of this engine and the prospect of reducing its emissions to an acceptable level are explored. The effect of these factors on future gasoline engines is discussed.
