Mazda Skyactiv-X

Mazda's reputation as one of the most innovative car brands is further enhanced with the launch of the revolutionary Skyactiv-X engine.
An outstanding engineering achievement, Mazda's new 2.0L Skyactiv-X engine is the world's first production petrol unit to exploit the benefits of diesel-like compression ignition. With the high-revving performance of a petrol engine and the fuel efficiency, torque and response of a diesel, Skyactiv-X features Mazda's revolutionary Spark Controlled Compression Ignition (SPCCI). This new engineering concept allows the engine to switch seamlessly between conventional spark ignition and compression ignition combustion by using a spark to trigger both types of combustion in different ways.
