Mazda Unveils New Internal Combustion Engine to be Released in 2027
Nov. 20, 2024
Mazda recently unveiled a new internal combustion engine that is set to debut in its vehicles in the next few years, according to Ecoticias.
While many automakers are focusing on production of EVs, hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, and hybrids, Mazda’s new engine is not an alternative to the internal combustion engine, but a variation of it.
The four-cylinder engine, called Skyactiv-Z, is expected to debut in 2027. Eventually, it will replace the internationally sold Skyactiv-X engine and the Skyactiv-G engine in North America.
Using a Lambda 1 air-fuel ratio, the Skyactiv-Z engine emits fewer tailpipe emissions when driving at full power, and offers improved fuel efficiency and performance.
