A sports car like no other
Spirited driving dynamics: The RX-8 delivers an unparalleled driving experience with its RENESIS rotary engine, 6-speed manual or 6-speed Sport mode automatic transmissions, an in-wheel type double wishbone front suspension, front and rear stabilizer bars and an available Limited-Slip Differential (LSD).
Innovative design: Its unique, assertive design both inside and out conveys the powerful image of the Mazda brand DNA thanks to its short overhangs, high wheel arches, well-defined roof line, contoured rear deck and a driver-focused cockpit.
Exterior
The RX-8's spirited, athletic exterior styling confirms that it is an authentic incarnation of the Mazda brand DNA. With unique freestyle doors to provide easy access to all four seating positions, the RX-8 keeps the overall dimensions of a sports car and still accommodates four adults comfortably.
Interior
The interior of the RX-8 is fashioned in true sports car style, with a functional cockpit and luxury touches that include available leather-trimmed seating surfaces and an auto-dimming rearview mirror with Homelink capability. Even the interior showcases the unique design of the rotary engine, with the rotor motif evident in the seatbacks and the manual shift knob. Mazda has broken the notion of sports cars as cramped coupes by effectively demonstrating that a true sports car does not need to sacrifice space or convenience.
Performance
The RX-8 is first and foremost a sports car, with the performance to match its aggressive street presence. The smooth power provided by the RENESIS rotary engine works in harmony with the RX-8?s advanced suspension and chassis design to deliver an exhilarating driving experience that?s sure to impress the driving enthusiast. Rear wheel drive and a near perfect 50/50 weight distribution complete the RX-8?s incredible performance package.
Safety
The RX-8 represents a perfect union of safety and performance, with a safety package that includes Triple-H body construction, 4-wheel ventilated disc brakes with ABS/EBFD, available Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) with traction control system (TCS), dual-stage advanced driver and front passenger airbags, driver and front passenger seat mounted side impact airbags and front and rear side air curtains.
