product: Mazda MX-5 RF
category: Sports Car
description: Since the early 1990s, the Mazda MX-5 has embodied a special kind of driving sensation as a roadster. As part of a reinterpretation, the visual element of the soft top was modified by substituting it for a design with a hardtop. The Mazda MX-5 RF is based on the proportions and lines of its predecessor and impresses with its balanced compactness. The task of integrating the new hardtop sensibly into the reduced car size led to a fascinating functionality, which in its choreography impressively resembles the folding and unfolding of origami art: with the three-piece roof closed, the car has the appearance of a sports coupé. When opened, the top sections of the hardtop disappear behind the seats in a process that takes only 13 seconds and which leaves the fastback pillars in place. The entire mechanism adds only a minimum of weight to this roadster and takes up virtually no boot space. With regard to flexibility and security, a number of details were taken upmarket, including the interior materials and cabin insulation. The MX-5 RF offers optimised steering and ride properties as well as impressive curve-hugging agility. It combines high power with an improved mileage range and lower emissions. The design of this new model thus achieves a perfect balance of all elements – guaranteeing a thrilling and exquisite driving pleasure in every season.
