“Well-To-Wheel” Approach for a Cleaner Future
In 2017, Mazda announced "Sustainable Zoom-Zoom 2030", focuses on three areas - "Earth", "Society" and "People" and sets out how we will use "driving pleasure", the fundamental appeal of the automobile, to create a sustainable future in which People and cars can coexist with a bountiful beautiful Earth.
Mazda e-SKYACTIV X Technology
A next-generation technology that take the internal combustion engine to a whole new level - SKYACTIV-X engine combines the advantages of gasoline and diesel engines, using the innovating Spark Controlled Compression Ignition (SPCCI), which embodies a high compression ratio of 15:1 and compression ignition technologies, together with the Mazda M Hybrid system to achieve better fuel economy and driving performance.
Spark-Controlled Compression Ignition (SPCCI)
SPCCI Technology offers complete control of compression ignition (CI) combustion by way of spark ignition (SI). Firstly, the piston compression stroke brings the temperature of air-fuel mixture to the point just below that at which CI occurs. Then, a small spark is lit and generates a fireball in the center of the combustion chamber, which then creates heat and pressure wave and acts to further increase compression in the combustion chamber. This expanding fireball acts like a "variable secondary piston" further compressing the air-fuel mixture, providing the optimum temperature and pressure time after time on demand for compression ignition, resulting better performance and fewer emissions than a conventional engine.
Mazda M Hybrid System
The Mazda M Hybrid is our new electrification technology that regenerates and stores deceleration energy with an Integrated Starter Generator (ISG) and a lithium ion battery, reuse it as electricity to power all 12V electrical components in the vehicle, assist engine acceleration and idling stop functions to enhance fuel economy and driving performance.
