This compact and lightweight clean diesel engine is designed for combustion efficiency, just like the larger displacement SKYACTIV-D 2.2. The result is cleaner combustion with low NO x and soot emissions. Misfiring is avoided by adopting a variable valve lift (VVL) system for the exhaust valves. Earlier post.) Source: Mazda.
