1.6 L V6 turbocharged ICE retained; MGU-H removed; MGU-K output tripled; 50/50 ICE-to-electric split (target ~750 kW combined peak power); Energy deployment limits: 4 MJ per lap from MGU-K (up from 2 MJ)
Why people argue about this
People often assume that the new energy deployment limits in 2026 will solely dictate how much power a car can generate from its engine, but actually, they're more about setting specific boundaries on where and when energy recovery systems like MGUs can be used to maximize efficiency without compromising safety or fairness.
