Group Tab Overview THE PERFECT FITThe first ever all-new Mazda MX-5 Retractable Fastback embodies everything the iconic MX-5 is famous for more. Incorporating true sports car elements with the spirit of its predecessors and the captivative KODO: Soul of Motion design, the MX-5 RF commands a striking road presence unlike anything else. Featuring our award-winning SKYACTIV Technology, this exciting sports car offers the perfect combination of fuel economy and thrilling rear-wheel driving fun, whilst also offers high levels of innovative technology and advanced in-car connectivity. Inspired by the Japanese notion of Jinba Ittai - ‘horse and rider as one’, this intimate bond between car and driver is what makes the Mazda MX-5 RF feel responsive, exhilarating and fun to drive. The power retractable hardtop consists of front, middle and rear-roof sections and the rear window glass panel. When open, the rear roof remains on the body while the other parts are stowed in the space behind the seats. Opening/closing the roof is done in 13 seconds by simply pressing the switch on the front console, even when MX-5 RF is in motion (at speeds up to 10km/h). The movements of each roof section are synchronized and overlapped to achieve smooth, fast operation. Operation is confirmed by a five-step animation shown in the multi-information display in the meter cluster. Performance Performance Car, Performance SafetyDevelopment of the all-new Mazda MX-5 RF focused on creating an exhilarating drive, while also maximising safety and driver peace of mind. The high-strength SKYACTIV-BODY is engineered to minimise harm in the event of a collision. Front airbags for both passengers come as standard, and side-airbags with head-protecting cells safeguard against impact even with the top down. Armed with the latest in safety aids, you can enjoy every thrilling drive with confidence. Engine SKYACTIV-G High efficiency SKYACTIV-G direct-injection petrol engines are your passport to a world of driving that is both exciting and eco-friendly. Body SKYACTIV-BODY The SKYACTIV-BODY is engineered to achieve two conflicting aims: lighter weight with better safety performance and increased rigidity. Transmission SKYACTIV-MT The new-generation six-speed manual transmission SKYACTIV-MT delivers positive and direct shifting, the transmission is both lighter and more compact. Chassis SKYACTIV-CHASSIS The SKYACTIV-CHASSIS delivers Mazda’s famous feeling of oneness between car and driver. i-STOP i-stop Mazda’s i-stop idling stop system automatically shuts down the engine when you come to a complete halt after braking, saving the fuel wasted when stopping in traffic or at a traffic light junction. i-Eloop i-Eloop The regenerative braking system captures the energy lost during deceleration, and saves it as electrical power in a revolutionary high capacity Electric Double Layer Capacitor (EDLC). The stored electricity is used to power the car's electrical equipment. Safety i-ACTIVSENSE PROTECTION AT EVERY cornerMX-5 is equipped with a host of safety features to keep you informed, and to help you anticipate and avoid hazards on the road. We call this integrated suite of advanced safety technology - i-ACTIVSENSE. AFS Adaptive Front Lighting System (AFS) AFS promotes safer driving by allowing you to see further at intersections or around curves at night. Taking inputs from the steering angle and vehicle speed, AFS predicts the shape of the road and directs the headlights' beams in the direction of travel, illuminating the path Mazda MX-5 will actually follow. HBC High Beam Control (HBC) HBC automatically switches between high and low beams to maximizes the use of high beams, thus enabling drivers to quickly spot potential hazards on the road at night. A camera detects the presence of preceding or oncoming vehicles for auto switching, reducing or eliminating the burden of having to manually switch between high and low beams. LDWS Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) LDWS sense lane markings on the road surface. When the system predicts departure from the lane, its issues an audible warning similar to the noise a car makes when its runs onto a rumble strip to prompt timely steering corrections. The system assesses driver inputs such as use of the turn signals to weed out false alarms. Exterior Interior CAR AND DRIVER BECOME ONEThe interior blends the boundaries between the inside and the outside of the vehicle. The sleek design promotes a greater sense of connection to the open air, and oneness between car and driver. Interior panels enveloping the driver feature exterior paintwork for a sport-luxe finish to the cockpit. Understated, quality finished feature throughout the passenger cabin, with all controls intuitively positioned to surround the driver in symmetry for optimal driving position comfort. Everthing about the uncluttered, driver-focused interior design has been considered to remove visual noise and maximise the driving pleasure of the authentic roadster experience.
