VTEC makes use of rocker arms and camshaft to control the power which the engine is outputting. Principally, at low RPMs, the rocker arms are engaged with the camshaft lobes which are of a less aggressive profile, which in this case of the article, 2/3 of the rocker arms are engaged to the camshaft. Higher RPMs would see all 3 rocker arms on each cylinder fully engaged and performing at its peak potential (Hevesy, 2023) . VTEC was essentially made with the idea of maximising your mileage (Km/L) while still ensuring the vehicle is still able to eke out every bit of performance that is available in the engine through the activation/deactivation of the rocker arms and camshafts. VTEC is truly an engineering marvel , bridging the gap b
