They've been around for about 20 years. No matter how good it is, without funding it will languish. True, the car makers and major builders of motors for boats, planes and farm equipment, have a big investment in tooling and their parts supply chain.

Car builders have made several shots to make big strides in the power to weight category. Mazda had developed a new generation Rotary that had reliable seals, ran smoothly with great power, unfortunately the emissions and mileage didn't cut it.

I had wondered what happened to the Mazda rotary engine.
