Abstract: A piston for an internal combustion engine, for example a diesel engine, including a body delimited laterally by a skirt and configured to collaborate with walls of a cylinder of axis of revolution C in which the piston can slide along the axis C, the piston including a transverse face that includes a central pip, a peripheral ring, and a bowl of axis of revolution B that extends from the central pip towards the peripheral ring to which it connects at a lip of thickness Ep. The bowl includes, in substantial vertical alignment with the lip, a torus in profile, for example of a dome-shaped, of maximum radius Rt capable of guiding fuel injected under the lip in a region of a re-entrant zone R towards the central pip. The tip of the pip lying on the axis of revolution B of the bowl rises to a height that is a distance Dt of between 5.4 mm and 8 mm, or substantially equal to 7.2 mm, below the level of the peripheral ring.
