Man saves total stranger’s Mazda RX-7 from getting swept away in a flood

2020 has already proven to be a very tough year. With negative emotions running high, we really do not need to see/hear a rare car like a Mazda RX-7 get damaged beyond repair. And the world would have seen one less RX-7 if this kind man hadn’t selflessly saved a complete stranger’s RX-7 from getting damaged by a bad flood! Austin Owens came across a post of a rare FD RX-7 in a flooding casino parking lot on Facebook. Owens knew that if the RX-7 is left as it is, it would only be a matter of time

FD Mazda RX-7 tries to show who the real Keisuke is, spins instead

Another day, another driving incident. In a video that recently made its rounds on the interweb, a FD Mazda RX-7 is seen gunning it, being chased by what looks like a Proton Satria GTI. Both cars can be seen using the entire width of the road to take the left-hander. Halfway through the corner, you can see the RX-7's tail start to step out and go into oversteer. Again, it seems like the driver has accelerated out of the bend too early, applying too much throttle (since I can't possibly comment o

Kehebatan enjin rotary Mazda, enjin untuk masa hadapan

Enjin rotary (putaran) Wankel kekal sebagai salah satu ciptaan yang paling bermisteri dalam industri automotif. Bukannya kami tak tahu bagaimana ia berfungsi, cuma peminat-peminat kereta tak henti-henti berbincang mengenainya. Bagi pemilik Mazda RX-7, jangan cepat perasan. Enjin anda bakar lebih banyak bahan api dari pelantar minyak, malahan ia seringkali perlu dibina semula. Ura-ura mengenai era baru bagi enjin rotary semakin hangat dibincangkan semenjak RX-8 dihentikan. Hampir setiap tahun aka

2021 Lexus RX 300 Luxury Special Edition - RM 12k bodykit?

If you ever thought the 2021 Lexus RX 300 was a little too sedate for Malaysian streets, this should fix it: the RX 300 Luxury Special Edition. This makes it the fourth RX variant in Malaysia, besides the Premium, Luxury, and F Sport variants. And from RM 421,909.50, it's RM 12k pricier than the Luxury variant.

Lexus Malaysia recently introduced the new RX here in Malaysia, giving its mid-sized luxury crossover a much-needed update.

These headlights are also slimmer in profile than the outgoing units, but you’d be hard pressed to differentiate them. Apart from that, the front fog lights have been repositioned to the edges of the bumper. The F Sport

Mazda files patent for a capacitor-based, in-wheel motor hybrid AWD, possibly rotary

More news that Mazda’s signature rotary engine is making a return. Previously, it was speculated that Mazda’s upcoming SkyActiv-R rotary engine will return only as a small capacity range extender engine, used to charge a series hybrid’s or an electric vehicle’s battery. The idea of a rotary engine being the primary source of motion in a car today is pretty much out of the question because the inherent nature of rotary engine means that it will not pass today’s exhaust emissions regulation. Or so

Mazda将推出3.0升的六缸后驱SUV,2023年上市

Mazda的下一款SUV车型将是一款搭载3.0升直列六缸引擎的后驱(RWD)车型,并将采用Mazda最新研发的新平台,Mazda以后的新车型绝大部分也将基于该平台打造。据传,该平台可以扩展和调节,以适配不同产品型号的不同尺寸。 Nikkei的报道指出,Mazda的新平台将于2022年初正式投入生产,而采用该新平台的产品预计会在2023年初上市。 我们希望这个消息也能让Mazda的形势有所缓解。人们对于这个新平台都十分兴奋,因为它采用了前置引擎后驱(FR)的布局,并且搭配的是一具新的直列六缸引擎。 这具新引擎会有汽油(拥有SkyActiv X技术)和柴油两个版本,排量从3.0升到3.3升,并搭配48V轻混系统。电动动力总成也将于之后推出,搭载Mazda标志性的转子引擎作为增程器。 尽管这个新平台起初是为运动轿车(如Mazda 6)而开发的,但目前其重心已经转移到了大量生产SUV车型,以接替Mazda CX-5、CX-8或CX-9等车型上了。不过,如果新车型的定位更加豪华,并且与现款车型一起市售,也并不让人惊奇,这就像Mazda CX-30和CX-3有所重叠一样。或许,我们还能看到Mazd

Bermaz is considering a hybrid Mazda MX-30 for Malaysia, rotary-powered?

The Mazda MX-30 made its debut late last year at the Tokyo Motor Show, as Mazda’s first series production electric vehicle. The model made its debut as a battery electric vehicle (BEV), meaning it runs entirely on batteries, and is said to go on sale later this year. What is less said however, is that the MX-30 won’t exist purely as a BEV model. A hybrid model is expected to join the line-up. At the same time, Mazda have repeatedly mentioned that it is working on a return of its iconic rotary en

The video hints that the model will be launched on 8-July.

Watch YS Khong tell you why Mazda is so singularly brilliant

On a personal level, I have always adored the Mazda brand, and the things that it stood for. Since early days, Mazda always stood out by being different. Sure, that didn't always end up being a good thing, but that never stopped Mazda from defying convention. But, when they got it right, boy did they get it right. Mazda was the first and only Japanese manufacturer to win Le Mans overall (until Toyota joined the party). And Mazda did it in the most Mazda way possible, with an engine no one else w

We previously heard that Mazda was quietly testing an electric-powered CX-30 e-TPV (Electric Technology Prove-Out Vehicle) prototype. And while it was a quiet preview, there was barely any coverage when the car was touring around Oslo, Norway.

Its goal is to take on BMW. A Mazda competing with BMW? What blasphemy is this? To be clear, Mazda is still a long way off from being seen as an equal to Mercedes-Benz, BMW, or Audi.

Mazda 2常常被认为是市面上操控性最好的B级掀背车,而在市售了近7年之后,据传它将迎来一次换代。 如果日本媒体的报道准确的话,下一代Mazda 2最早可能会在2021年9月发布,也就是7个月之后。 至少对于日规车型来说,下一代的Mazda 2将会使用Mazda自家的平台,而不是和欧规版Mazda 2一样变成TNGA-B Toyota Yaris的换标车。 除了平台之外,日本相关人士还声称,下一代Mazda 2将会有一系列的动力系统可选,其中也包括全新的三缸SkyActiv-X引擎。其它引擎选项还包括两具沿用下来的1.5升引擎,分别为柴油引擎和汽油引擎。 日本知情人士还表示,下一代Mazda 2可能会在2022年追加增程式电动动力系统,并使用一具转子引擎作为增程式发电机。尽管听起来很不靠谱,但Mazda已经官方宣布,转子引擎将在Mazda MX-30上以增程式发电机的形式回归。 推荐阅读:Let's take a look at Mazda’s electrified rotary engine, launching in 2022 继续关注我们,了解最新动态。
