Mazda unveils plans to commercialise compression ignition petrol engine
Tokyo
MAZDA Motor Corp unveiled plans for the world's first commercial petrol engine using compression ignition, placing traditional engines at the centre of its strategy days after saying it would develop electric cars with Toyota Motor Corp.
Mazda, whose research and development (R&D) budget is a fraction that of Toyota, could be the first carmaker to commercialise a technology that many peers, including General Motors Co and Daimler AG, have been working on for decades.
