Mazda has announced that the upcoming all-new Mazda2 will feature the SKYACTIV-D 1.5, a newly-developed 1.5-liter clean diesel engine using Mazda’s next-generation SKYACTIV technology.
Similar to the SKYACTIV-D 2.2 clean diesel engine in the CX-5, the SKYACTIV-D 1.5 was developed for ideal combustion despite a low compression ratio. The result is an engine that boasts outstanding dynamic performance, with torque equal to a 2.5-liter gas engine, linear acceleration, and excellent environmental performance.
