If that’s the case where are they? Other than being used in israeli suicide drones.
like the dreams of a working rotary engine? Many companies have tried, but it keeps killing companies and it still is an impossible goal.
Rotarys are 2-strokes are kneecapped by emissions standards/laws, not because they don’t work.

You’re mixing up “miracle tech that leads to nowhere” with “niche tech with little mass appeal”. A rotary engine car has won Le Mans, The Mazda 787. I’m pretty sure one of the recent Mazda plug in Hybrids (I refuse to call those EV-s) has a rotary engine as a backup for the electric engine.
