Mazda hosted Green Car Congress at a SKYACTIV Technologies media workshop this week in Vancouver, Canada, at which engineering management explained the development philosophy, approach and results for the initial set of SKYACTIV technologies. Extreme compression ratio rather than downsizing. Although downsizing—i.e.,

However, there are also significant efficiency gains through the downsizing. The engine uses a new generation turbocharger connected to a pulse converter type exhaust which optimises the use of exhaust pressure waves to increment the driving torque at low speeds.
