Finally, someone finds a practical way to use the wasted ICE heat:

The concept uses energy from the exhaust gasses of the traditional
Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) to power a steam engine which also
contributes power to the automobile ? an overall 15 per cent
becuase... running a sirling off the heat from the engine coolant and block is innefficient?

Who says the actual engines they're using aren't similar to Stirling
engines? They pipe the hot fluids to a pair of expansion units but
the article doesn't say what's inside
okay, i hadnt looked that close at the schematics. you're right, they ARE using the other waste heat as well.
