Direct Fuel Injection Control

Homogeneous Combustion 

Homogeneous combustion is a combustion method that fuel is injected during intake process so that combustion occurs in the entire combustion chamber, as is common with conventional methods. As for a start except for starts with the engine cold, homogeneous combustion occurs.

Stratified-charge Combustion 

Stratified-charge combustion is a combustion method which enables extremely lean combustion by injecting fuel in the latter half of a compression process, collecting combustible air-fuel around the spark plug, and forming fuel-free airspace around the mixture. Right after a start with the engine cold, the catalyst warm-up is accelerated by stratified-charge combustion.
