Mazda Engine

Mazda engine comes in many types. Ranging from the smallest to the biggest engine, there are at least fifty-five types of Mazda engines that can be distinguished based on the fuel displacement. These engines have similar Mazda auto parts but varying in design and output. These engines can be classified into four major types. The four major types include the V2 or twin cylinder engine, the straight four with four cylinders, the V6 with six cylinders and the Wankel which uses a rotor rather than reciprocating pistons. These four main types have sub categories or families. The sub categories cover twelve families of engines that are designated by letters. The simplest Mazda engine was the V2 engine which only had 356 to 577 cc of fuel displacement. This engine was used in Mazda automobiles from 1960 to 1963. On the other hand, the V6 J engines are the biggest engines. Their fuel displacement ranges from 2000 cc to 2954 cc.
