The all-new Roadster is truly the son of its father, inheriting the original model's "Jinba Ittai" development concept, boasting reduced curb weight and equipped with a newly developed compact 2.0 liter MZR engine. As a lightweight, open-top sports car, driving performance is further enhanced through carefully scrutinized savings in body weight, optimal weight distribution, and the latest features to meet safety and environmental requirements. A completely redesigned exterior passes on the unique heritage of earlier Mazda roadsters with contemporary, accessible styling. The interior's simple-yet-progressive appearance is conveyed through clean-feeling surfaces and the use of new materials.
