2020 MAZDA MX-5
Expert Analysis
The Mazda MX-5 has long been revered for its agility and responsiveness, but the new 2020 model takes this iconic roadster to unprecedented heights of driving pleasure.
Slinking into the driver's seat, I was immediately struck by the Sport trim's understated yet elegant design. The Soft Top's fabric folds neatly into the boot, revealing a cabin that exudes a sense of premium quality. The 2.0-liter inline-four engine, boasting 181 horsepower and 151 lb-ft of torque, provides a delightful surge forward whenever the pedal is pressed. The six-speed manual transmission shifts smoothly, allowing the driver to fully exploit the MX-5's playful nature.
As I navigated Japan's winding roads, the Mazda's RWD setup delivered an unshakeable sense of connection between vehicle and asphalt. The steering, though electrically assisted, provides a level of precision that would put even some of its German rivals to shame. With features like blind-spot warning, lane departure warning, and a backup camera on board, this MX-5 is more than just a lightweight sports car – it's a thoroughly modern and remarkably refined driving machine.
