February 27, 2013: OAKVILLE, ON CANADA: Mazda’s fuel-efficient SkyACTIV technology has been awarded the Green Car Technology Award™ at the Washington Auto Show (WAS). The redesigned ‘direct injection’ powered engine technology was launched with high expectations in 2011 and so far it is meeting them head on. Mazda SkyACTIV came out on top amongst other major nominees such as Fiat MultiAir, Fisker EVer Powertrain, Ford Auto Stop-Start, EcoBoost and Honda Eco Assist; all of which gained the distinction of Green Car Journal’s ‘Top 10 Green Car Technologies for 2013’.
If you want to see this award winning technology in action, a range of SkyACTIV models are on sale at local Mazda dealership Budds’. As well as bringing you Mazda’s newest technological innovations, Budds’ are also the top supplier of used cars in Mississauga. Budds’ offer a pressure-free friendly environment in which you can browse and find the right car to suit your needs.
Technologies such as Mazda’s SkyACTIV are essential for the auto industry to meet strict new fuel economy restrictions by 2025 and decrease CO2 emissions and petrol usage. Mazda is rising to the challenge with its approach that seeks to optimize fuel usage rather than re-think it. Mazda’s 2013 CX-5 was the first model to utilize SkyACTIV technology, enabling the quirky crossover to achieve a remarkable 35 highway mpg.
Ron Cogan , editor and publisher of the Green Car Journal had this to say: “Optimizing the entire vehicle, from engine and transmission to chassis, body structure, and all the components large and small that make up a modern vehicle is truly paramount. This holistic philosophy epitomizes the ideal in delivering the enabling technologies so important to creating the efficient, fun-to-drive models required for a more environmentally compatible driving future.”
Mazda has a history of redefining expectations and the skyACTIV technology is a classic example of their innovation in action. You can find SkyACTIV in a range of new Mazda cars such as the CX-5, 3 GX and new Mazda 6, all available at Budds’ Mazda, along with a selection of Mazda used cars.
