Toyota still on top.
That is the Amazing, all-new 1.33-liter Dual VVT-i engine. VVT-i (variable valve timing - intelligent) provides continuous, variable control of both the intake and exhaust valves to optimize performance and fuel consumption. This also yields more torque at low engine speeds and helps reduce exhaust emissions. When the car is stationary, with the transmission in neutral and the driver's foot off the clutch pedal, the engine automatically and quietly stops to reduce fuel consumption and emissions. When the driver re-engages the clutch, the engine automatically restarts. This brings particular benefits in urban traffic, with a potential 15 per cent improvement in the amount of fuel used and CO2 emissions.
VVT-i, the start-up noise level has been reduced by 9dB. Good jebus! Toyotas are already the most quite running cars on earth. Some society for the blind sued Toyota for making their automobiles to quite, blind people were getting run over cause they couldn't hear them. BLIND PEOPLE NOT HEARING THEM!!!!!!!!!!
