358
The 358 cc water-cooled OHV straight-4, used in the 1961 P360 Carol had a tiny 46 mm bore and 54 mm stroke. This was one of the smallest production 4-cylinder automobile engine in history, only beaten by Honda's 356 cc DOHC alloy 4 cylinder unit used in the T360 truck. The engine's small size was dictated by Japan's keicar rules which offered special status to vehicles with engines displacing less than 360 cc. Mazda's tiny OHV was the only four-cylinder in the class in the 1960s, but was outperformed by 2-stroke and I3 powerplants from other companies. Mazda also developed a prototype Wankel engine under the limit, but its introduction was blocked by the company's larger competitors. The size limit was raised to 550 cc in 1976, and no other company saw fit to build such a small engine again.
