ABSTRACT:
An engine system for a vehicle, comprising at least one cylinder configured to vary operation between a spark ignition mode and a homogeneous charge compression ignition mode; a navigation system configured to receive navigation information and/or one or more human/machine interface (HMI) sensors; a control system for varying operation of the engine between the spark ignition mode and the homogeneous charge compression ignition mode responsive at least to one of the navigation information and HMI sensor information, where the information is used by the control system to affect transitions into the homogeneous charge compression ignition mode differently than transitions out of homogeneous charge compression ignition mode is provided.
