Why Do I Drive a Mazda MX-5 (ENG) - Test Drive and Review
Why Do I Drive a Mazda MX-5 (ENG) - Test Drive and Review
Mazda MX-5 is a roadster launched in 1989. And it’s not just any roadster. In 2016 Mazda announced it sold one million examples of this small sports car. And more than a dozen years earlier the MX-5 became world’s best-selling roadster, when sales topped half a million. What’s behind this success story?
The MX-5 was always small, light, agile, and relatively cheap. By relatively cheap I mean priced as a well-specced compact hatchback. Not even a hot-hatch. In the world of sports cars and cabriolets that’s a low price.
This is the fourth gen Mazda MX-5 or ND, as enthusiasts refer to it. Or to be more specific ND2, as this is a face-lifted version. I’d even call it ND2.5, because Mazda constantly updates it. What’s new in 2023? Let’s find out!
