Default Mazda announces breakthrough in HCCI Technology

Exciting official announcement for Mazda:

I am happy to see them on the cutting edge of engine technology. This can only mean good things for the brand.

EDIT: I found an even better article that includes much more info and Mazda's actual slides from the presentation.

36.8:1 AFR.....that's crazy. I have friends in the industry who have said that HCCI has been around for a long time, but the control systems were too expensive for vehicles. Props to Mazda for getting it to work on pump gas.

I'll believe it when I see it, but that would be pretty awesome.
