Mazda MX-5

Compact Size and Light Weight

The all-new Mazda MX-5 has been specifically designed with compact size and light weight in mind. These two elements are essential for the car's great performance, dynamics, efficiency and driving pleasure. To ensure these results, the car's design and dimensions have been carefully met with stringent parameters. Outwardly, little has changed with the new MX-5, as it is still 3,975 mm long, 1,680 mm wide and 1,225 mm high with a wheelbase of 2,265 mm. The interior is designed to be a "cockpit" like space, where the driver feels one with the car. The MX-5 is based on a front-engine rear-wheel-drive configuration, and has engine mounted "front-midships", resulting in a 50/50 weight distribution, a low centre of gravity, and a reduced yaw moment. Additionally, it uses the double wishbone suspension system, which is the ideal design for a sports car, and the "Power Plant Frame" is inherited from the predecessor car model.

Design

The eye-catching design of the MX-5 is instantly recognisable. It has all the characteristics of a real sports car - from the blisters on the fenders to the fixed headlights - forming a flowing look that catches the eye. Inside the car, the snug cabin is designed to satisfy all senses - offering a pleasant view, sound, and touch. For ultimate functionality, a T-shaped instrument panel is used.
