A spark ignition type internal combustion engine includes a plurality of cylinders and can stop combustion in part of these cylinders. Further, the spark ignition type internal combustion engine comprises a variable compression ratio mechanism (A) which can change an mechanical compression ratio, and a variable valve timing mechanism (B) which can control a closing timing of an intake valve. When idling part of the cylinders or increasing idled cylinders, the closing timing of an intake valve (7) moves in a direction which approaches an intake bottom dead center side, and the mechanical compression ratio of the operating cylinders falls. By idling part of the plurality of cylinders in this way, it is possible to realize a high heat efficiency even in a region where the engine load is low.
