Home›Engines›All EnginesBrowse ByAll EnginesReference and ClassificationDevelopingThe umbrella grouping for vehicle propulsion engines across every transport mode this atlas tracks, sitting one level above the four mode-specific engine subcategories that already carry the detailed working scope: Automotive Engines, Aircraft Engines, Locomotive Engines and Marine Engines. Belongs here, at this coarse level: the category node itself and any future mode-specific engine subcategory this atlas adds; individual named engines are never minted directly under this node. Does not belong here: any specific named engine or engine family, which always belongs to whichever of the four existing subcategories matches its vehicle mode -- an engine entity minted directly under Engines rather than under, for example, Automotive Engines or Marine Engines, is filed one level too high.FactsAll EnginesConnectionsSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonEra of EmergenceWell-attested1712 CE 1All EnginesFilter Results950 entriesEngine TypeAllAlternative Propulsion Systems (4)American V8 Engines (19)Diesel Locomotive Engines (5)Heat Engines (3)Marine Diesel Engines (3)Marine Turbine Engines (2)Military and Heavy Vehicle Diesel Engines (3)Motorcycle Engine Layouts and Designs (6)Piston Aero Engines (7)Racing and Formula One Engines (42)Road Car Engines of Europe and Japan (123)Rocket Engines (3)Turbojet and Turbofan Engines (6)ConfigurationAllDeltic Triangle (1)Flat or Boxer (10)H Configuration (1)Inline (89)Opposed-Piston (3)Radial (3)Rotary (1)V-Configuration (97)VR configuration (2)W Configuration (2)Fuel or CycleAllDiesel (35)Electric (2)Ethanol (2)Gasoline / Petrol (83)Hybrid (4)Hydrogen (1)Jet Fuel / Turbine (6)Methanol (1)Rocket Propellant (2)Steam (2)Two-stroke (1)YearAll1818 (1)1821 (1)1824 (1)1860 (1)1873 (1)1893 (1)1894 (1)1927 (1)1929 (1)1931 (1)1932 (1)1933 (1)1936 (1)1937 (1)1938 (3)1939 (1)1940 (1)1944 (1)1949 (2)1950 (2)1951 (2)1954 (3)1955 (3)1956 (1)1957 (1)1958 (3)1959 (3)1961 (2)1962 (6)1963 (5)1964 (3)1965 (4)1966 (1)1967 (3)1968 (3)1969 (6)1970 (1)1971 (5)1972 (4)1976 (2)1977 (2)1978 (1)1979 (1)1980 (4)1981 (2)1982 (5)1983 (5)1985 (5)1986 (4)1987 (7)1988 (4)1989 (3)1990 (2)1991 (4)1992 (3)1993 (6)1994 (2)1996 (2)1997 (2)1999 (2)2000 (1)2001 (4)2002 (3)2003 (5)2004 (4)2005 (3)2006 (5)2007 (3)2009 (2)2010 (2)2011 (6)2012 (2)2013 (2)2014 (3)2015 (3)2017 (3)2018 (2)2020 (1)2025 (1)2026 (1)ManufacturerAllAerojet Rocketdyne (4)Alfa Romeo (11)American Locomotive Company (4)American Motors Corporation (7)Audi AG (4)Automobili Lamborghini (5)Bayerische Motoren Werke AG (1)Bentley Motors (1)BMW Group (55)Bugatti (1)Cadillac (12)Cosworth (17)D.
