Japanese carmaker Mazda has developed a more efficient petrol engine at a time when the industry steers toward electric vehicles.
It said the compression ignition engine was up to 30% more fuel-efficient than its current engines. It would be the world's first commercial petrol engine to use compression ignition where the fuel-air mixture ignites spontaneously when compressed by the piston in the new engine. The new SkyActiv X engine works like a diesel engine but burns petrol.
Might be of interest to the Technical Members - Dave :)
