——to turn the valves that move the wheels-—

but does the author know anything about which he writes?

But, But,

“development of the turbo engine, which uses air to pressure and power”

and

“converts the piston’s movement into energy, which is immediately transferred to the electric generators”

Doesn’t sound like it.

Seems this is a hybrid akin to a diesel electric locomotive. Less moving drive-train parts...but energy conversion losses. Not sure what is so revolutionary about this one...and the author does nothing to explain how the valves are eliminated.

Why would this one be an exception?
