SKYACTIV-D 2.2 Twin-Turbo Diesel for 2014 Mazda 6?

[Mclovin80]

Did anyone else hear about this? I didn't see any specs on it, but it sounds pretty sweet.

Yeah there are no confirmed specs, but at least its the TT Skyactiv-D is confirmed for US.

[SFWD 1934]

According to Mazda, it will be available in January. They are also saying the CX5 will have an additional 30hp/35tq from the 2.5L Skyactiv G motor and still get 32mpg.

Manual trans?

[Mclovin80]

Yes I believe I read somewhere about a six speed manual available.

[GODspeed7]

I read it was going to be 178hp and 302tq and that their diesel motor that they are entering the Le Mans race with will be pushing 400hp and ???tq. That is sick. If Mazda makes a 300hp and 500tq diesel sporty car, I would be all over that!!!

Praying to the good Lord Cobb will pick up the tuning for this ecu....or a good diesel shop. BMW can't have all the fun.

[Domino81]

I'd have to drive it. Diesel cars generally lack the punch that a gasoline car does.

4.5inch exhaust here I come

Read/heard about it.....standing by for the hard #'s and specs.

Is it going to be AWD?

[I<3Groceries]

Certainly impressive that it revs as high as it does, but still doesn't seem high enough for legitimate road racing...

Are there diesel engines currently used in professional racing?

VW has their TDI cup racing.

[dale_gribble]

Praying I can get a good deal on my CX-5 trade in for the CX-5 with diesel early next year. I love our CX-5 but the damn thing is gutless as a car can be.

[SPEED6 KILLAH]

Hey are some pic of the diesel mod already.

[scubasteve711]

I think my gf is thinking the same thing! I have a friend who is a sales rep at a mazda dealer, can't wait to check out the diesel cx5 and 6... A diesel 6 with AWD would fit the bill perfectly for me...

On that note...

There is diesel nuthugging on every car site I visit. People are always talking about the torque and how powerful they are, yet just about every diesel car I look up is slow as balls. What am I missing here? I'm assuming the base 2.5 189hp/189tq will be way faster than the 2.2 170hp/300tq diesel?

[ms3rick]

i want one

wut? turbo diesels tend to have more punch. torque ftw.

awd turbo diesel and a manual transmission and I'll be in line to buy one right away.

[Domino81]

It's because by the time the turbo spools you have a morsel of power and then you have to shift.

[amoosenamedhank]

I would drive the shit out of this car.... Yes please. Good thing my current lease isn't up until 2015... it will force me to be patient enough to see how this plays out.

What are you talking about? Have you ever driven a diesel that wasn't a jetta? That's not how it works at all.

[Domino81]

Every diesel car or truck I've ever driven has felt like that. Some are better than others.

Well with a 5,200 redline and the right gearing.... that shouldn't be a problem here.

[BobtailedSnail]

Pretty cool how the injectors are on the head. Glow plugs must be on the side. And where is the exhaust manifold?

[Haltech]

I don't think modern day diesels use glow plugs anymore

Pretty sure its the specs below - 170/300. Couple that with a nice auto and the thing should get up and go pretty damn good with that torque.

Nah - midrange power is where it's at, plus the transmission will be tuned (at least the autos you'll inevitably find in the CX5) will be tuned to keep the engine right in the meat (giggity) of the power band...

Most don't. The mazda one doesn't.

[I<3Groceries]

I read a publication state in a very recent article that acceleration between the gas engine and the oil burner is actually very comparable out of the box, according to Mazda.

Of course doesn't mean the oil burner doesn't have more performance potential...

All I honestly want is AWD. Manual or not. As long as the tranny can handle a good amount of torque.

Think Focus...the EM is built into the head and connects to the first compound turbo...then it dumps its DP and WG into the 2nd turbo...badass LAIC between the two.

another version

I read somewhere that its about 180 hp and 3xxlb/feet, so dont get too excited.....but I would love to be wrong

I noticed it when I look over the pics again last night. I wonder what turbos they are using. I'm using holset baby h1c/gta40 combo for my setup.

YOU HAVE GOT TO BE FUCKING SHITTING ME.

If Mazda integrated the head and em; I will not buy this. I think its retarded and very performance limiting.
