If Mazda Made A New RX That Looked Like THIS Would You Go All In?

“Without the rotary engine, there would probably be no Mazda. And without Mazda, the rotary engine certainly wouldn’t have been in production for nearly 50 years.” This is the message the Zoom-Zoom company published on a page dedicated to the quinquagenary (yes, it’s a word) of its rotary engine back in 2017. Since then, Mazda has announced the rotary’s return as a range-extending engine, but with no signs of a new RX sports car.

Depends on price, power and handling.

I would be intrigued to at least test drive it and see if it deserves my money! I welcome any sports car/coupe offering in the sea of soccer mom cuv/suv.

10x's better than the Supra. From the front looks like a Maserati. The rear view is where it loses interest.
And the headlight/front hood design looks like a Disney witche's eyebrows gone wrong.

Does not look attractive for a sport car!

That would he HORRIBLE. How ugly. It needs to be faithful to the original RX7 in look and market placement.

I do like the look of this, even though not an official rendering. I too agree that would depend on the price. To me though sort of looks like a bulged Miata

A rotary Miata-based coupe would be exactly how to do an RX7

I'm not a fan of the sleep/drunk eyes. The side looks like a Maserati. The back is just ok. So, no. Not that one.

THe sealing problems, and poor gas mileage of a Rotary are largely solved when using it as an assist engine limited in RPM range. So - what would be the main propulsion? and EV? - Nope. too Expensive to have both.
