The Mazda MX-5 is the one of the best-selling two-seat convertible sports cars in history. Also known in North America as the Miata, the Mazda MX-5 is one of the most recognizable and beloved sports cars available. Globally marketed, there have been over a million produced of the iconic vehicle. One of the most significant factors for success has been the Mazda MX-5âs relatively low price against comparative models, such as the BMW X4. The small, light and uncomplicated design make the car approachable for a broad market, especially fans of more traditional roadsters. Now in its fourth generation, the Mazda MX-5 is as celebrated and decorated with awards as it ever was.
Features of the Miata
The most prominent selling feature of the Mazda MX-5 is its formidably tight handling. Standard fitted with rear-wheel drive, the sports car is as nimble at changing direction as they come. Additionally, the stiff suspension and strut brace give these cars extra solidity contrasted to the lightweight body. The strong hug the Mazda MX-5 holds on the road makes steering effective on corners and accurate overall. Meanwhile, the modest 1.5- or 2.0-liter engines are not the same powerful beasts that more costly competitors like the Porsche 911 or Audi R8 offer. However, the Mazda MX-5 pushes the elite sports car class by being an affordable yet formidable competitor.
Speedy and sporty options
The first-generation Mazda MX-5 was unveiled in 1997. With each subsequent generation, the Miata has become lighter, more technologically advanced and popular. Additionally, the convertible has progressed in options. The fourth-generation introduced a retractable fastback option, gifting the Mazda MX-5 a more rigid roof for a coupe-like appearance. Thankfully, despite the keen price tag, the sports car comes loaded with modern tech and accessories at its most standard.
