Camless Car Engines
First a car with no traditional transmission, and now they taking it further with developing a camless engine (in a Saab none the less).
Koenigsegg never fails to amaze me  http://jalopnik.com/what-its-like-to...ine-1529865968

Hmmmm... They need to come up with a better "shock title". Camless engines aren't new: 2-strokes and rotaries don't have cams...

10% more efficient than traditional cammed valves? Not worth it. In the cost benefit analysis, it will be a long time before we see cars with this. Boats, trains, and trucks only. There are also more-developed competitors in the arena. Saab is dead. Koenisgeggskjhsdjahsdh is an ugly supercar.

Shock and awe title? How about limitless tuneable pressure actuated valve stems that will eventually replace all clunky camshafts.

Rotary engines are the way of the future... I can feel it.
