Five-Point Inspection: 2014 Mazda MX-5 Club

3. Major Improvements Presumably on the Horizon

There isn’t much of the old Mazda left and if you’ve been keeping an eye on the stream of new products that seems like a good thing. Sure the current car is great, but it’s probably fair to apply the same guidance to the next MX-5, which is expected to be lighter than the current generation “NC” with improved handling characteristics.

So far the “SkyActiv” treatment seems to be working wonders. The CX-5 is great and both the Mazda3 and Mazda6 are contenders for best-in-class, so it seems logical to assume the same will go for Mazda’s sports car.
