How is this specific to the OPOC engine?[edit]

The third (=last) paragraph of the "OPOC" section reads:

The OPOC engine can be moduled with two, or more, engines coupled via an electric clutch between engines. When more power is needed the second engine is clutched in. When clutched out of service there are no friction or pumping losses from the second engine module. This arrangement in city running vehicles could have a small, highly economical engine as the prime engine and when accelerating hard, or pulling heavy loads, the second, or more, engines are clutched into service.

That goes for any other engine type too, doesn't it? -- CRConrad (talk) 08:35, 12 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
