Exhaust heat recovery works, but it's typically some combination of complicated, heavy, large and expensive. I'm guessing with the Mercades F1 unit, it's mostly complicated and expensive.
i'm not sure why we don't recover it using a boiler FREE energy that would have been wasted

catalytic converters get to 500-1200C.. FREE wasted energy... basically you can regenerate your battery while your ICE is on


the steam can be recycled 0 water loss steam system


I see there is something called Rankine Cycle how would i add something like this to my suv
