A sports car like no other
Mazda’s uncompromising pursuit of driving enjoyment has resulted in the development of the exhilarating new-look Mazda RX-8. With a combination of inimitably appealing sports-car styling whilst comfortably accommodating four adults thanks to a user-friendly four-door four-seat layout, the RX-8 not only delivers but surpasses all expectations.
Powered by the breathtaking RENESIS rotary engine, this light, compact, naturally aspirated twin-rotor unit screams ‘Zoom-Zoom’. Matched to a revised 6-speed manual or new 6-speed Activematic transmission (RX-8 Luxury), the RX-8’s responsiveness can only be described as outstanding. Handling precision is assured with its advanced front-midship layout; long wheelbase; a light, rigid body structure and revised suspension system.
Available in three variants; RX-8, RX-8 Luxury or the leaner, meaner, performance focused RX-8 GT.
