If you"ve read the full tech breakdown of Mazda"s new SkyActiv-X petrol engine , with its claims of diesel economy and well-to-wheel CO2 emissions that better an electric car"s, then you"ll probably be wondering the following: Great. But does it actually work?" Sportingly, Mazda let Top Gear go for a drive in a Mazda 3 mule (new platform, new ultra-comfy seats, current body on top) fitted with the new 2.0-litre SkyActiv-X engine. Now, this is a proper prototype. Mazda was happy enough with the driveability to let us have a go, but said the targeted power of 189bhp and 170lb ft isn"t quite there yet.
