Of course it can. Capturing and using waste heat already happens and it isn't a new idea. I made that point in post #15, so no disagreement with that.
Where I do take issue with you is when you express
that motor vehicle technology can be improved to make better use of waste engine heat. In other words, you are claiming that you know with certainty that it can be.
The practicality for motor vehicles is what to do with recovered energy. If you care to do the number crunching yourself, you will find that it is a lot of waste energy.
Maybe it can be made use of.
But I don't know how. Evidently you don't either.
So, we are at an impasse.
