Mazda MX-5 ND - 4 2015 - 2018

The Mazda MX-5 is a compact two-seater roadster, an emblematic figure of the segment since its launch in 1989, recognized for its balance between accessibility, road performance and the pleasure of convertible driving. From its beginnings to today, the Mazda MX-5 history stands as an undisputed market success, with over one million units sold worldwide across five distinct generations. The Mazda MX-5 model has undergone remarkable evolution: the first NA generation (1989-1998) laid the foundations of the concept, followed by the NB (1998-2005) which refined the formula, then the NC (2005-2015) offering more power and technology, while the ND (since 2015) combines lightness, energy efficiency and refined design recalling original codes. Positioned against competitors such as the BMW Z4 and Audi TT Roadster, the Mazda roadster nevertheless maintains a singular philosophy: that of simple, lightweight and accessible mechanics, favoring low-rpm dynamics rather than sheer power. The successive Mazda MX-5 generations marked automotive history by democratizing the pleasure of convertible driving, with evolving powertrains ranging from the initial 1.6-liter to 2.0-liter blocks delivering between 130 and 184 horsepower depending on versions. Today, the MX-5 remains an essential model in the segment of accessible sports roadsters, a timeless reference for enthusiasts of pure sensation and driving in direct connection with the road, confirming Mazda's expertise in chassis and handling.
