Abstract: A motor vehicle includes a fuel cell and a supply assembly to supply the fuel cell is disclosed. The supply assembly comprises a centrifugal compressor to compress a reagent and comprising an impeller having in turn a shaft portion extending along an inlet axis, a circumferential edge extending ringwise around the inlet axis, a connecting portion extending from the shaft portion to the circumferential edge, first and second blades projecting from the connecting portion, of which each of the second blades is arranged between two corresponding blades to form two respective radial flow channels for the reagent, wherein the first and second blades have respective profiles along respective curvilinear abscissae with shapes equal to each other and located uniformly distributed according to a period or angular step around the inlet axis, wherein the profiles of the second blades are shorter than those of the first blades.

Abstract: A car having: two front wheels; two rear wheels; an opposed-piston internal combustion engine and having: a crankcase, a number of cylinders obtained in the crankcase, a number of pistons twice the number of the cylinders as two opposed pistons slide in each cylinder, and two crankshafts, which are longitudinally oriented and are each connected to a respective half of the pistons arranged on a same side of the crankcase; and a gearbox, which is connected to the crankshafts of the internal combustion engine and is arranged behind the internal combustion engine. The gearbox has two clutches, each separate and far from the other clutch and connected to a corresponding crankshaft, and two input shafts, each connected to a respective clutch.

Abstract: A car having: two front wheels; two rear drive wheels; an internal combustion engine which is provided with a plurality of cylinders inside which respective pistons slide and with a drive shaft connected to the pistons, and arranged longitudinally in a central or rear position; and a transmission system which connects the drive shaft of the internal combustion engine to the rear drive wheels. The internal combustion engine is oriented vertically with the drive shaft arranged higher than the cylinders.

Abstract: An internal combustion engine generally includes at least a cylinder; at least an intake valve acting on an intake port for controlling the airflow entering the cylinder; at least an injector for supplying uncombusted fuel to the cylinder; at least an outlet valve acting on a respective outlet port for controlling the flow of the exhaust gases at the outlet of the cylinder; a piston sliding in a linear manner within the cylinder; at least a first spark plug arranged in a position adjacent to the injector and acting within the combustion chamber; a pre-chamber communicating with the combustion chamber; and a second spark plug acting within the pre-chamber; the first spark plug is arranged in an intermediate position between the pre-chamber and the injector.

Abstract: A vehicle having: an internal combustion engine provided with a plurality of cylinders, at least one cylinder block, in which the cylinders are located, and at least one head, which is fixed to the cylinder block, and a liquid cooling system, comprising a hydraulic circuit, inside of which a coolant flows, which is circulated by a circulation pump. The hydraulic circuit has an initial section, which is located inside the head of the internal combustion engine, and a final section, which is obtained inside the cylinder block of the internal combustion engine. In the hydraulic circuit, the delivery of the circulation pump is directly connected to the inlet of the initial section, and the outlet of the initial section is directly connected to the inlet of the final section.
