We developed new generation gasoline engine called as SKYACTIV-G which achieved remarkable improvement of fuel economy and torque due to high compression ratio. In this SKYACTIV TECHNOLOGY development, we introduced new development process as well. That is the approach such as function development, quality certification method in the market field, common architecture(CA)concept and so on. By applying this new development process to all technical at tributes such as performance, reliability and NV area, bundled development of the engine family could be realized, which has same functional characteristics regardless of difference of engine displacement or difference of specification due to the market deployment plan. Finally, this approach brought about robustness of the quality guarantee, as well as drastic improvement of engine efficiency.
Consumer Reports released its annual vehicle reliability survey Monday. The magazine predicts the reliability of 2013 model-year cars and trucks based on a survey of readers who own 1.2 million vehicles from the 2010 through 2012 model years.
These are the vehicles which had the fewest reported problems in each category:
