Thinking about the rotary engine and the principal of working of the same, it will lead to the general opinion that it is DEAD. There will be no continued production for this kind of engines because they are not too much fuel efficient and also they cannot place the power that an LS3 engine could. Or any other engine in that matter; as rotary engines are the ones that were invented by a mistake and now they are going to be misused as well. Why would you even buy a car that has this engine under the hood when you can buy a lot cheaper version with four inline cylinders and be done with it.

We have 4 reasons brought to you by the YouTube master Engineering Explained that will convince you the rotary engine is dead. These engines have lower compression ratios inside the cylinder chamber and the combustion chamber has the guilt for this particular question. There is too much mixture that is leaving the chamber without being burned. This is where all the power is lost and you have clean air fuel mixture exiting the chamber. That’s why they are not fuel efficient and the amount of power that is given out of the cylinders is much smaller than the conventional engines.

Keeping the chambers sealed is one more down side of the rotary engine. The cylinder is rotating inside its casing as we know the normal engine has the cylinders going up and down. That’s why it is hard to keep all that exploding mixture in the combustion chamber and after it has been burned to take it to the exhaust fumes exit. Mixing these two is the biggest fault that the rotary engine has and maybe for this mistake it is dead already, not producing any more units from any factory in the world.
