More on the SKYACTIV :MAZDA: VISION | SKYACTIV TECHNOLOGY | Mazda Spirit

I find it really interesting that Mazda decided to increase the compression ratio on the gasoline engine (14:1)

MAZDA: SKYACTIV-G | ENGINE | SKYACTIV TECHNOLOGY


meanwhile decreasing the CR in the diesel version MAZDA: SKYACTIV-D | ENGINE | SKYACTIV TECHNOLOGY.

Some very interesting information on that website regarding the necessary adaptations required by these engines.
