Mazda's next-generation KODO Design & SKYACTIV-X Technology

Description

Mazda's new SKYACTIV-X engine represents a significant step towards this goal. It is the world's first commercial gasoline engine to use compression ignition, in which the fuel-air mixture ignites spontaneously when compressed by the piston. The company's proprietary combustion method Spark-Controlled Compression Ignition (SPCCI) combines the spark ignition of a gasoline engine with the compression ignition of a diesel. This overcomes two issues that have, until now, impeded the commercialisation of compression ignition gasoline engines; maximizing the operating zone in which compression ignition is possible, and achieving a seamless transition between compression ignition and spark ignition.

  • Leaked iPhone 6S Photo Suggests Longer Battery Life

    With the debut of the next-generation iPhone likely three months away — a new one traditionally launches each September — the Apple rumor mill is heating up right on schedule. Allegedly leaked photos of Apple's upcoming iPhone, presumed to be called the iPhone 6S, reveal an exterior casing that looks nearly identical to the iPhone 6 but comes with some internal updates. The details come from tech site 9to5Mac, which has a solid track record of correctly identifying leaks ahead of an Apple launch. Despite initial rumors that the next-generation 4.7-inch iPhone could be even slimmer than the iPhone 6, the leaked photos show no changes to the casing. If the photos are legit, any differences in thickness, length or width are too small to notice. This doesn't come as a huge surprise, considering the iPhone is on an "S" cycle this year, which traditionally has fewer design changes and more internal upgrades.
