Uberwgn,
We are talking about the Skyactive-D engine. There is a gas and Diesel version.
I showed the new Mazda 6 to my girlfriend and now she wants one. Can't afford it but still wants one.
I wonder how the engine holds up over time. A lightened aluminum block and heads plus Diesel sounds iffy to me but then again they are using very low compression. It is a thoughtful design but I'll venture a guess that it won't have the reliability of a 617. Top that off with the added difficulty of working on it.
