A Wankel has some inherent problems which are unsolvable. The seals between the "lobes" and wall for example. If they develop a new material, one that lasts, if it is applied to a normal Otto or Dieser engine, that will make those even better...

The service interval is way too short, and no "normal" mechanics can service and repair them.

I think that (sadly) this direction will kill off Bristol.
