Abstract

An internal combustion engine, in particular an Otto-cycle engine, has an exhaust gas turbocharger and a mechanical charger, wherein a compressor of the exhaust gas turbo charger is disposed upstream of the mechanical charger in the air channel for combustion air such that the compressor of the exhaust gas turbocharger draws combustion air directly from an air filter. A first charge air cooler is disposed downstream of the compressor of the exhaust gas turbocharger and upstream of the mechanical charger. A second charge air cooler is disposed downstream of the mechanical charger. The first charge air cooler, the second charge air cooler, the mechanical charger, and an intake manifold are all arranged in a single charge air cooling module, wherein direct fuel injection into the combustion chambers of the internal combustion engine is provided for supplying fuel.
