RX-9 Coupé Mazda sports

Mazda has been very late in the development of a new generation rotary engine that you plan to use a brand new sports car. The new car can be called RX-9 and unlike its predecessor, the RX-8 (four-door opening in mirror), will feature only two doors. The RX-9 share a platform with the next generation of small MX-5 roadster, and its empty weight is moved over the 1,250 kilos. Unmotorcapaz is animated by delivering more than 300 horsepower, which is called 16X. He is thought to use an electric compressor and its size will be slightly higher than the twin-rotor 2.6-liter and 228 hp using the current RX-8.

The new engine will be much more efficient than the current RX-8. Unmotorque was withdrawn early this year, due to its altoconsumode fuel and oil, which prevented him from complying with the standards set recently by the new rules EuroV on respect for the environment.

Still, the RX-8 has had considerable success, especially in the United Kingdom, which began selling in 2003, surpassing the 10,000 units annually in the early years. Only in Britain circulate about 50,000 of these sports.

16X development is well under way, but Mazda’s engineers were being consisting achieve all goals. For now, have made it 30% more efficient than the RX-8. The big advantages of these motors is that they are smaller, lighter, less vibration support, allow for greater maneuverability and facilitate the placement of the transmission, which speeds up the construction of the vehicle.
