At Mazda, we never stop when it comes to making our vehicles the best-driving cars in every class. In fact, our engineers are so obsessed with reaching this goal that they spent eight years developing the most subtle technology to improve performance. Not something a driver is capable of, but something that makes every drive more enjoyable. Vehicle shown may be priced higher. Actual dealer price will vary. See dealer for complete details.

Certified Pre-Owned. Mazda CX Explore Build. The focus of SkyActiv is efficiency, specifically the development of petrol and diesel engines with low emissions and high fuel economy but minimal downside in terms of performance. There are three main families of engines under the Mazda SkyActiv umbrella. These are SkyActiv-G - a range of direct-injection petrol engines, SkyActiv-D - a family of turbocharged diesel engines and SkyActiv-X - an advanced petrol engine using compression ignition technology.
There have been a number of different variants, the first of which entered production in SkyActiv-D turbocharged units meanwhile aim to eliminate the need for expensive NOx and particulate treatment in diesel engines with clean combustion processes. It runs on petrol but can ignite its fuel using the more efficient compression ignition technology of a diesel.
The first retail Mazda using this was unveiled in Mazda has also previously shown off a SkyActiv-R concept, slated as the new generation rotary engine. The latest 2. This results in a broader operating band of combustion efficiency, which ensures e-Skyactiv X not only delivers higher maximum engine torque but also improves real-world fuel economy. This improvement on control smooths drivability by increasing or reducing torque control when needed.
As a result, the engine feels even smoother during linear acceleration. During my drive of the new Mazda 3, I also gained a sense of it in the interior equipment of the vehicle as well.
The engine is the heart of any vehicle and arguably the most important. Mazda implemented many adjustments to their engines to make them as fuel efficient as possible. They mainly make their engines fuel efficient by raising the compression ratio and fitting parts to make that possible. Most of the Skyactiv engines currently run a compression ratio. This is among the highest that you will see at any car lot, and Mazda is able to do this thanks to parts such as:.
Mazda and other researches state that these re-worked cylinder heads also have indentation in the top, this allows for a richer mixture and therefore, harnessing more energy from the fuel. The manifold aims to increase efficiency by separating the pressures caused by the individual cylinders. This overall reduces the interference of pressure between the cylinders, and can increase the speed of the exhaust gas release.
For the tranny side of things, Mazda mainly set out to improve the overall efficiency of the vehicle by making the transmission much lighter than previous models. In fact, their new transmission that is connected to an All Wheel Drive system is a whole 40kg lighter than previous models. Mazda also set out to make their automatic transmissions more responsive and smoother.
When I was driving the new Mazda 3, I really noticed this. Lighter materials mean less mass.
