Mazda readies Skyactiv engines: The gasoline and diesel units share the same 14:1 CR and manufacturing processes

摘要

Mazda has pulled the cover off its next-generation engine strategy, called "Skyactiv." Slated to enter production in 2012, Skyactiv includes all-new spark- and compression-ignition engines that share various design attributes and combustion techniques (including a 14:1 compression ratio). They will also share some machining and assembly processes.
