- Mazda invited us out to a press day at their headquarters to show us their new engine technology. Could this be the new Mazda rotary engine? We didn't know!
Turns out it was their new Skyactiv technology --specifically SkyactivX. While we were a little bummed it wasn't the rotary, our dismay was alleviated as we started to learn all about this impressive technology. This [largely] SPARKLESS engine relies on insanely high compression in coordination with a slew of other engineering marvels to maintain a stable gasoline ignition. Zoom zoom muchacho.

Haha, you’re a master James!! This was great. Since, at 4:27, you said you think that most is correct (which it is) I thought I’d help ya out. It actually never runs in HCCI (homogeneous charge) mode, as it always uses a spark. Sometimes it’s just spark ignition, sometimes SPCCI. But the important thing is that they always use a spark to so that they can control exactly when combustion occurs. Kaboom. Kapow! Cancun. Knowledge. 👌👌

Engineering Explained op
Mazda is really underrated car company
Kaan Wayne your prove?
rashdan 97 they are making their own technology, they have special design, they have super build quality. Did you saw Mazda RX vision? Beatiful car. Maybe its not actually evidence but those are true facts.
Mazda is truly the savior of the car community. They try and always attempt to innovate for the driving experience, not on how you can save gas in a glorified RC car.
I have 2012 Mazda 3 SkyActive and I LOVE that car. Super sporty and when I baby it I'm getting almost 50 mpg. So far very reliable as well.
rashdan 97 And who the hell is crazy enough to put a rotary in a car?
I love Mazda’s approach. “There is no replacement for displacement”.
ok hear me out, Mazda should make a turbocharged HCCI rotary hybrid diesel engine.
1. We do not inject diesel via ports/valves (Port Fuel Injection, PFI; or Multi-point Fuel Injection, MPI), we inject directly into the cylinder (Direct Injection, DI). HCCI is a Port Fuel Injected system. This method of combustion is just running a Gasoline engine so it "diesels" (runs without a spark, which is otherwise considered "abnormal combustion," which is bad in a regular, conventional engine). MPI would be less efficient in a diesel engine; Direct Injection offers better fuel economy than MPI when considering both standard Diesel and Spark-ignited Gasoline engines. The theory of running an engine using what we still call "abnormal combustion" isn't new, but actually getting it to work is the new technology.
2. Mazda's Rotary design isn't exactly very efficient. It's light, and it has a fair amount of power for it's weight, but as a rotary, there are far better Wankle designs, namely which reduce wear on the Apex Seals. There are far better ways to lubricate the engine, other than using dirty, used engine oil basically dumped into the intake like a carburetor, and then have fuel injected later on. The most common way to fix the lubrication issue in a Mazda engine is to premix Two Stroke engine oil with the fuel, which unlike conventional motor oil, is designed to be burned. There is a prototype diesel rotary from LiquidPiston, but their design for rotaries are not like Mazdas, and are much smaller. That being said, technically nothing stops you from enlarging the parts and attempting to build a larger one. It's worth noting, however, that their prototype is just that - a prototype, which doesn't even contain a cooling system. It's just a proof of concept.

Shoutout to Mazda man. They always are doing something different. Rotarys and slyactiv are sick. Been driving a Mazda 3 for a while and It gets the job done. Wish they would bring back Mazda speed tho lol
The world does IC , Mazda's like "we gonna do rotary !".
The world does electric, Mazda's like "we gonna do IC !"
What? Rotary engines are IC as well. Rotaries just don't use pistons like most other cars.
Bro a rotary is still an internal combustion engine
SkyactivX is basically maximum efficiency. I love how they took the hard route with making car efficiency instead of just shoving hybrids and CVTs and crap like that to consumers. Maybe then they'll make an efficient magic triangle.
O!Technology supposedly that is in the works and will go into the rx-9. Note: this is being made separately from the rotary ev thats is being made atm
The thought of a sparkless Dorito makes me hard
Same shit as volkswagen's budack system...only more reliable and less over engineered
once they get this tech into mainstream, watch for cvts and turbos haha
Yes . Sky active is a marketing gimmick. Mazda have less brake through tech. They could collaborate with Toyota. Exchange hybrid for hcci

Mazda specialised in weird engineering, before it was rotary now this
amer albakri also the Miller Cycle engines in the millenia's.
out of the box thinking:)
*I too immediately thought of Mazda's failed foray into producing cars with the Miller Cycle engine... Its too bad Mazda is better at losing money than making it.*
Without failure u not going have progress
*Without cars that actually sell... you have no car company, Mazda has already been bankrupt 3 times... they may just get swallowed up by Toyota or Honda next time and cease to exist.*

Skyactiv Rotary. Make it happen Mazda!
daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn
Did some research, they are actually working on something like that
gerrit sikkema yes, Mazda is working on a new Wankel engine but it will function as a range extender in their fully electric vehicles :(
Zoltan Benedek room for rotary conversions?

I salute Mazda for not doing what the Germans do by slapping a turbo to a smaller engine and calling it "efficient".
And selling it a 40 000 € .
1001speedster well, it makes it "efficient"
1001speedster Borg Warner is American
I'm Yeah and? Denso is Japanese, BOSCH is German, magneti marelli is Italian. The nationality of parts suppliers don't mean anything since it's the car manufacturers that actually design the parts and their mechanical implementation on their mechanical systems.
That's not to say Borg Warner is a bad company, they're a good a parts manufacturer.
CeSayrise Yup deffo, German engineering is a myth, whilst it's correct and impressive to a certain degree I guess, the phrase "German engineering" is also glorifying that a more complex system=better. Even though it hinders system reliability heavily and is an expensive maintenance nightmare. Hence why the Germans lost WW2 because their tanks, whilst impressive, were unreliable, hard to maintain and expensive. And thus is why the Soviet T-34 and American M4 sherman were better suited for the battles in WW2.
Loved the Chris Farley SNL throwback...."I dont wipe properly"
I just have to say that was the most well-timed bass drop I've ever heard in any video, whoever edited this did an amazing job, because right after "Zoom Zoom muchachos" I instinctively bobbed my head in time with that first beat. Keep up the good work, y'all.
It's not that expensive to repair the body because it's stock I supose I think the engine is where the $9,000,000+ went.

great and easy explanation of skyactive technoology, tnx Donut :)
Do a Mazdaspeed 3/6 up to speed
before people say "seems like a lot of wasted engineering in light of everything going electric" don't forget, gas generators and range extenders will still be around a while. wouldn't you want those being more efficient?
Bit wankel Engines are Beter Form Range extenders and that Codes from Audi and Mazda
Also gas engines will still be relevant for quite some time. Electricity has to come from somewhere and the bad part is, you can't store it so you have to produce exactly what is needed. So yeah we would have a major electricity problem if everyone switched to electronic cars.
Justin Noker it also helps that most of our electricity is created by coal and not my solar or wind and even if it was, solar and wind have a much larger effect on our environment than gas or coal. They ruin our environment and are costing us money because our government is deciding to pay anyone who use these sources. So it’s good they’re aiming for efficiency
*Range extenders are are monumentally stupid which is why no automobile manufacturer sells one.*
Kevin Marquez what kind of medicinal ganja are you smoking? Solar and Wind are good for the environment lol
We found the Shell rep
I totally love the video, funny and informative, great job 👍.
Great episode, keep it up!
I hope this will make a mazda a shit ton on money
To spend on rotary development
Toto Geenen Mazda has the funds for rotary development, they've been developing a new one for years until they finally decided it'll never be efficient enough to be used as a sole engine. Unfortunately, the rotary powerplant is seemingly dead.
Shona I thought they had stopped due to a lack of funds and because they were working on this
Toto Geenen They recently confirmed that the rotary would be coming back, but as a range extender for an electric hybrid engine. They seem to have concluded that, in their research, the rotary simply can't be made efficient because it needs so much oil because of the high heat and internal rotational speeds it reaches.
Shona I knew that they were going to use it as a range extender but I thought they were working on a sports car as well :(
To be honest, any development on rotaries is good for us. Maybe once they figure out how to make an efficient and reliable rotary range extender they'll be able to use that knowledge to make an efficient and reliable sports car engine...?
Maybe i'm being too optimistic, but I can't help get the feeling that Mazda is using the whole range extender thing as an opportunity to shovel tons of money into rotary R&D
Hey guys you're doing a great job for the car community go work
Great video - thoroughly enjoyable and what about that awesome matte black paint job!
Best car channel on the internet, fun, gives new info, educational, it has it all thanks for existing donut 👌🏻
Why I love Mazda!!
They can do this but can't repair rotaries....
xIRG04x like seriously!!
Markez Singltary I want my rotaries
Why when you can just put LS engines in Rotary cars.
The Aussie's and Kiwi's seem to repair rotaries quite well...
xIRG04x ikr.... I cry every time
So...how efficient is it? MPG? Love the videos man, best stuff out there.
It is said 20% and in some cases over 30% more efficient than current Mazda engines depending on driving style.
That’s awesome man! Can’t wait to see how the longevity of HCCI engines works out.
HCCI stands for Homogenous Charge Compression ignition not High Compression Combustion Ignition.
Homogenous Charge means the fuel is premixed with Air before compression unlike Stratified Charge which means the fuel is sprayed into compressed air.
Diesels are SCCI (Stratified Charge Compression Ignition) and Traditional Gasolines are HCSI (Homogenous Charge Spark Ignition)
Evan Ruston Thank you scrolled through all the comments looking for exactly this! I love most of these vids but if you're doing a video about new engine tech at least get the name and tech right!
it stands for whatever the hell mazda wants it to stand for in their cars.
Wait, is it manual?!
The MX-5 comes with a manual transmission 🤙 I think some other entry level cars in their line up might too 🤞
2:09 made me laugh.
That intro made me smile like a child! So much fun
I love when everyone hates on efficient cars, but they don't realize that there wouldn't be V8s anymore of there weren't so many damn Prius. Someone has to even out the MPG my dudes
I remember watching Mad Max (the first one I think) and I remember the special intercepter being called "the last of the V8s". For a while that made me sad because I thought that one day that might be true.
But now it turns out I'll probably end up seeing the last V6 :'-(
Honda's new turbo 4 is too small for the Accord; but to my knowledge, no one is planning a new 6 cyl, and in fact most manufacturers are designing V6 replacements >:-(
youfoundisaac Just the cycle of evolution my man. Nobody wanted to see the coal engines go away, but gas took its place no problem. Hybrids and super efficient gas engines are the turn of the tide. Nothing to be afraid of. Performance will always be aspect of transportation as long as the demand is there.
CeSayrise When countries have to have an MPG average, the fuel efficient cars allow the manufacturer to produce performance cars, so ya, the Prius allows a lot of V8s to be made today. Also check you comment before hitting send. I can barely understand that mess of a thought.
Yeah i know , my english suck , but hey ! it isn't that bad huh ?
@Name User Bingo. This guy has got it. Not gunna lie though I have a Prius as my commuter and my favorite troll move is to go 5 under the speed limit. You would be amazed at how impatient people get. xD
Mazda will save us and will save the car community
I remember seeing them working on this motor in Dallas at tech training almost two years ago, the sound is what qued me to ask my trainer what kind of motor it was.

This is probably your best video yet. Perfect blend of cool shit, new tech, eli5, and daddy never understood me.
you know what makes this video great? There's no terrible animation in it. there's no animation at all. absolutely perfect.
I’m not hating on Mazda but they are able to save the gasoline engine yet not the rotary, but if they are able to save one they are able to save the other, and I’m confident that Mazda is trying to revive the the graceful spinning dorito
that will only happen with hydrogen
you cant save the rotary, it is the two stroke engine of the car world. less parts and smaller engine producing much more power to weight than any other engine but with less reliability due to the design focused entirely on making power. the main problem is the fact that the rotary burns oil which is a massive problem for emissions regulations which is why it would have been stupid to continue working with this engine.
*The Wankel engine is dead, Mazda ceased development of production Wankel engines back in May 2009.*
+Owen racing *Mazda only sells reciprocating engines since 2012... the Wankel engine was permanently discontinued because new car buyers refused to buy the anymore.*
*Wankel engines are completely obsolete in the automobile and engine manufacturing industries... you would have to be very gullible and naive to believe these inferior engines will ever come back... this is simply never going to happen for obvious reasons.*

You gotta love Skyactiv Technology 🙌🏼
Yo the clip of his grandma tho
Mazdas VTEC
Xillerrz *VTEC killer
Almost every Mazda since 1986 till had a system that resonates the air around 4K RPM. Porsche, the Audi R8 and probably a few other manufacturers use this technology to some degree.
Most people change out their air intakes on Mazdas when they modify them. This renders the VRIS useless and then no kick at 4K.
If you modify Mazdas while still keeping the factory intake the results are usually much better.
Great Video! ya'll should do the Achates Power OPGCI engine next!
It's similar to the Mazda concept but it has no spark plugs.
Gotta love comments section in all donut videos
like diesel, but petrol...
wonder if others manufacturers will use this technology too
*Diesel engines are Stratified Charge Mode combustion, not homogeneous Charge Mode.*
@@doktorbimmer ok.. and?
I think Toyota are now sniffing around Mazda in what could be a take over if not a partnership, Mazda are believed to have a straight 6 skyactive D and i think an X if not a G in the pipe works for their large platform, rumoured to be shared with toyota in some Lexus cars in the future, a straight 6 skyactive rwd mazda,what a time to be alive
