After the Mazda company separated from the Ford concern, the first thing that was to do this automobile manufacturer was to develop a new platform and a family of new engines as cheaper, which would meet Euro-6 standards. This was necessary to begin the process of creating new generations of “treshki” and “six”, as well as begin to construct new crossovers. In the conditions of the fact that the manufacturer tried to save on almost everything, the Japanese helped their ingenuity. Despite the fact that sometimes Japanese engineers set themselves mutually exclusive tasks, as a result they managed to find a breakthrough solution to a seemingly insoluble task.
It is difficult to say how much the SkyActiv program to the Japanese manufacturer cost. It is only possible to state the fact that out of $ 670 million, which was involved as investments, approximately 145 million was spent precisely on the process of research and introduction of new technologies into cars. As the basis for the future automobile platform, the frame of Mazda 6 was taken. She had a lonerone straightened and replaced the anterior two -leaf with more budget racks from McPherson, the same as that of the “treshka”. The bottom of the car became modular: its longitudinal part in the center of the power structure will remain unchanged in all modifications of cars that are planned for production on one line.
With all the optimization of the body design, the engineers were given special attention to the need for uniform distribution of shock loads on the body. As a result, now the passive protection of MAZDA cars, in their terms of body safety, very much resemble the Stuttgart company Mercedes-Benz. After its modernization, the new body at the Japanese car manufacturer increased its stiffness by about 30%. This also became possible due to the fact that when constructing the body, a special adhesive connection was used in the rear roof racks, as well as the technique of combining point welding and gluing this composition in the area of the rear arches of the car.
Their main achievement, in the Skyactiv project, the Japanese are rightfully inclined to consider a new line of engines with four cylinders. As promised three years ago, the head of the developers of the company MAZDA Seyta Canai, the engineers managed to “fit” with their engines into Euro-6 and provide almost 15% saving fuel without the use of hybrid technologies in their cars.
