Mazda 25 specs: 2.498L (152.5 ci) 4-cylinder, 89 x 100 mm (3.5039 x 3.9370 in) bore and stroke, 15:1 compression. Rated 200 hp. Rod ratio and piston speed.
The Mazda Skyactiv-X (25) is undersquare — the 3.937" stroke exceeds the 3.5039" bore by 11.0% — a layout that trades peak RPM for leverage and torque low in the range. The 3.937" stroke puts mean piston speed at 4,000 ft/min around 6,100 RPM, which is where a production bottom end is generally considered at its limit. Each of the 4 cylinders displaces 38.1 ci (625 cc).
15:1 on aluminum heads is high for a production gasoline engine; running a ratio like that on pump fuel depends on chamber design and fuel delivery rather than the number alone.
It is one of 4 engines in the Skyactiv-X family, the largest at 152.5 ci. Factory fitments include the Mazda CX-60 (Europe), Mazda 3, Mazda CX-30.
