The Scuderi Group Friday for the first time publicly introduced its breakthrough Scuderi Engine and its air-hybrid capabilities to the Japanese automotive market as part of the Nagoya Eco Clean Car Fair'08. Held in what is considered to be the "Detroit of Japan," the event is anticipated to draw up to 30,000 Japanese automotive engineers and other "green" car professionals through the weekend. Flanked by its engineering experts, the Scuderi marketing team also debuted the Japanese version of its DVD, which can also be viewed now on the company's web site homepage. Crowds on the first day were extremely curious about the engine's design, particularly how it achieves historical gains in fuel efficiency while emitting up to 80 percent less toxins than all the engines on the road today. With the use of interpreters and other Japanese-focused materials, the group was able to engage the people and explain the many aspects of the Scuderi Engine and its revolutionary internal combustion process very clearly. Scuderi's participation in the event is a result of an invitation by the Japanese government and its Japanese External Trade Oganization (JETRO), which searches the world for technologies that could benefit Japanese society. JETRO extended invitation to the Scuderi Group and is also advising the company on continuing to establish its presence in the country.
