Testing was independently performed on the IVT at......

the “Millbrook London Transport Bus” (MLTB) Cycle, at Millbrook Proving Ground, UK; and Optare UK, one of Europe’s top bus manufacturers, have recently achieved a 19% fuel economy improvement in an Optare Solo Bus by replacing the standard fit 5-speed automatic transmission with a prototype Infinitely Variable Transmission (IVT).

I recall that Torvec's testing results were superior to this device. I don't recall that Torvec ever placed one in a bus to be independently tested. I'm sure that if they did, those results would be superior also.
