Mazda set to revive the RX-7
04 Jan 2010|7,692 views
The new RX-7 could use an all new rotary motor developed by Mazda with a 1.6-litre displacement, called the 16X Renesis. The new engine is said to be able to produce up to 350bhp, although a more realistic figure for the production car would be around 200 to 250bhp.
The decision to discontinue the RX-8 comes after Mazda announced a 47.5% drop in sales for the four-seater sports car with unique suicide doors in the first quarter of 2009, as compared to the same period the previous year. As a result, Mazda has decided to consolidate its sports car range, offering just the MX-5 roadster and the new RX-7 for the time being.
