Recent studies on Brownian motors driven by colored non Gaussian noises have shown that the departure of the noise distribution from Gaussian behavior induces an enhancement of its current and efficiency. Here we discuss some new aspects of this phenomenon focusing in some analytical results based in an adiabatic approximation, and in the analysis of the long probability distribution tails' role.
