It said the compression ignition engine was up to 30 per cent more fuel-efficient than its current engines.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\">It plans to sell cars with the new engine from 2019. Last week, Mazda said it would work with Toyota to develop electric vehicle technology and build a $1.6 billion (Sh160 billion) in the United States.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\">Mazda research and development head Kiyoshi Fujiwara said it was imperative for the company to pursue the \u201cideal internal combustion engine\u201d. \u201cElectrification is necessary but\u2026 the internal combustion engine should come first,\u201d he said.<\/span><\/p>\n\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\">Mazda said the Skyactiv-X, as it is known, would be the world\u2019s first commercial petrol engine to use compression ignition. The technology breakthrough puts the firm ahead of rivals including Daimler and General Motors that have worked on compression ignition for decades.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\">According to Mazda, the fuel-air mixture ignites spontaneously when compressed by the piston in the new engine. It said the Skyactiv-X combined the advantages of petrol and diesel engines to improve efficiency. It has no plans to supply the engine to other car-makers.<\/span><\/p>\n\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\">The move comes as the car industry pours massive investment into electric technology in response to stricter emissions standards around the world. Britain plans to ban the sale of new petrol and diesel cars by 2040 in a bid to reduce air pollution.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\">In July, Volvo said all new models will have an electric motor from 2019. The Chinese-owned firm aims to sell one million electric cars by 2025. Mazda also plans to introduce electric technology in its cars from 2019.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em>Source: Motoring News<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Japanese car-maker Mazda has developed a more efficient petrol engine at a time when the industry steers toward electric vehicles.
