Axial Vector is an international firm, based in Portland, Oregon, that owns, develops and licenses proprietary intellectual property with unique internal combustion engine technologies. Their engines use a linear power design to create a combination of horsepower, torque and fuel efficiency superior to that of standard internal combustion engines. In several tests, the engines manufactured by AVEC produce an average of three times as much torque as a standard engine while measuring only half the size. The engines also have significantly less moving parts, which allows them to require less maintenance and run for more hours without the need for an overhaul.
