Upcoming Cars in 2011 Mazda RX-7 Preview With Specification and prices

Upcoming Cars in 2011 Mazda RX-7 Preview With Specification and prices

Here are the specs we know right now about the Upcoming Cars in 2011 Mazda RX-7:

Pricing: hasn’t been released yet, but Mazda hopes to keep it below $30,000
Fuel economy: unknown at this point. Because the rotary engine is not generally known as an engine with great fuel economy, some have speculated that there will be a hybrid component included.
Engine: 1.3-liter rotary Wankel engine with somewhere between 200 and 270 horsepower
Acceleration: the RX-7 is designed to be a sports car and should have strong acceleration
Car safety features: safety features haven’t been announced yet, but should include antilock brakes, traction and stability control, and a variety of airbags.
Suspension: double wishbone suspension is likely for front and back
Warranty: likely to have a three-year/36,000 mile basic warranty; five-year/60,000 mile powertrain warranty; and three years or 36,000 miles of roadside assistance.


The wide-body RX-7 is wearing the same Veilside body kit as can be found on the car that appeared in The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift. As if that weren’t fame enough, this specific Mazda was the poster car for 2007’s Hot Import Nights car and music tour.
The RX-7... this is a great car. It has the famous rotary engine and performs well. The special engine gives it a very distinct sound. I would love to have one of these amazing machines.

Mazda released the first pictures of the new Mazda 5 that comes with a facelift in 2008, and will make a real presentation of the car at the Bologna Motor Show that starts December 7th.



The new Mazda 5 has a few modifications worth mentioning and I will start with what we see on the outside. You can now choose power sliding doors and the dampers are changed a bit. The interior the mid panel with the dashboard functions was redesigned and include a DVD navigation system and a touch screen display.



Now that I got to the part that I enjoy the most, performance, you should know it’s not just the looks that will change on the 2008 model. Mazda 5 is now powered by a MRZ 2.0-liter engine with electronic throttle and sequential valve timing, and features two types of transmission to choose from. One is a 6-speed manual and the other one is a 5-speed automatic.

Modern Mazda 2 Preview 2008



Modern Mazda 2 Preview 2008

Mazda gives us a preview of it’s new B-segment hatchback, the Mazda 2. Updated to modern Mazda design language, gone is the boxy outlook of it’s predecessor, instead you get a sporty hatch which is reminiscent of the Toyota Yaris. The new Mazda 2 is shorter at 3880mm, however it still keeps an identical wheelbase of 2490mm.

It has a sporty front, with a large air dam flanked by two smaller ones hosting fog lamps, and large headlamps, however I have to disagree with their choice of front grille design – something bigger would have looked better. Trunk space is rated at 250 liters, but with the seats down it enlarges to 469 liters of space. The 2008 Mazda 2 is expected to be unveiled with three engine options, a 1.3 liter petrol (two variants – 74hp/118Nm and 83hp/121Nm), a 1.5 liter petrol (103hp/136Nm) as well as a 1.4 liter turbodiesel.
