Toward this purpose, we delved further into the concept of Kansei engineering* employed since the first generation as we made a concerted effort to appeal to the senses and sensations through which people enjoy cars, and thereby realise an unprecedented level of driving pleasure. We fully adopted the latest implementation of Mazda’s SKYACTIV Technology and its related theories as part of a thorough effort to achieve the ideal structure for a lightweight sports car. The result is the most compact body size of any MX-5 generation combined with a weight reduction of more than 100 kg over the third-generation model.
The Mazda MX-5 has steadily evolved in a way that is only possible thanks to an unchanging passion shared between Mazda and countless MX-5 owners and fans around the world. As the current programme manager of this product, I am both profoundly appreciative and keenly aware of the great responsibility I bear. This explains why we can never take a break from “innovating in order to preserve” if we want the MX-5 to continue to be the recipient of such passionate adoration for the next 25 or 50 years. This is our duty as the developer, and at the same time it’s an exciting dream, a source of happiness, and something we are proud of. It is also a conviction that will surely be inherited by the next generation of engineers who work on the MX-5. We are ready for the challenges of the next quarter century and beyond, always inspired by the passion of our fans around the world.

Particular effort was concentrated on advancing three elements.
The first was to create a design that would set any heart pounding with excitement. Just one look at the fourth-generation MX-5 should get the pulse racing. Sitting in it should bring a smile to the driver’s face and instantaneously spark an urge to take the top down and go for a drive. And it should become a cherished part of the owner’s life as time goes on. These attributes are what the development team aimed to express in an even purer state with the fourth-generation MX-5. In pursuit of them, they worked to add greater depth to the KODO design theme, to embody beautiful proportions that make the occupants stand out and to make the Mazda open-air roadster experience all the more enjoyable.
They focused on the following:

Beautiful proportions that make its occupants look good.

A deeper expression of the KODO design theme that conveys agility

Body surfaces that richly express the Japanese sense of contrast between stillness and motion

An interior design that melts away the boundaries between the inside and outside of the car.

A snug feeling cockpit with symmetry and a singular axis that enables concentration on driving.

The second element is to deliver a driving experience that will captivate any driver. For every generation of the MX-5, importance was placed on appealing to the senses and sensations through which people enjoy cars rather than focusing merely on sheer performance. With “sensation” as the keyword for the fourth-generation Mazda MX-5, development efforts focused on making the car even more enjoyable to control and faithful in its response.
When driving in typical daily situations, the car responds directly to the driver’s will, as though it were extension of the driver’s own body. When enjoying a sporty run along winding roads, it responds faithfully to the driver’s actions in pleasingly light fashion.
Every effort went into further refining these attributes to realise the ultimate Jinba Ittai driving experience that will captivate any driver. Here are some of the highlights:

The latest SKYACTIV Technology and Mazda’s “gram strategy” combine to reduce weight by more than 100 kg over the third-generation model.

Front-midship engine, rear-wheel drive configuration to achieve an ideal 50:50 front-rear weight distribution.

The engine is located closer to the vehicle’s centre, the bonnet, boot lid, front fender and front and rear bumper reinforcements are made of aluminium, and the weight of the soft top is reduced. These combine to attain a lower yaw inertia moment and a lower centre of gravity.

The pedals, controls, gauges and all equipment are optimally positioned to enable the driver to maintain a straight posture and drive comfortably.

The height of the bonnet is lowered and the A-pillars and windshield header are moved rearward and made thinner to create a panoramic view with greater visibility of the road and peripheral movement.

SKYACTIV-G direct-injection petrol engines are positioned longitudinally and specially tuned for the MX-5.

New lightweight yet highly rigid suspension fully leverages the know-how of SKYACTIV Technology, with a double-wishbone suspension in the front and multi-link set-up in the rear.

The brake system is designed to maximise controllability and deliver reassuring effectiveness, plenty of braking power and an optimised posture when braking.

The third element is a pleasantly refreshing roadster experience that anyone can enjoy. It embodies a feeling of openness only possible in a convertible sports car, a feeling that can quickly lift anybody’s spirits anywhere and anytime while enjoying an open-top drive.
Key elements here included:

The MX-5 is equally beautiful whether the top is up or down.

The interior is designed to maximise the pleasure of open-top driving.

The soft top is easy to operate while seated.

Wind control makes a pleasure of driving with the top down.

Headrest speakers further enhance this enjoyment.

In addition to the three aforementioned elements, the fourth-generation further evolves the pleasure of an MX-5 adapted into an original car that reflects its owner’s character. Furthermore, satisfying the demands of the day are Mazda’s latest-generation human-machine interface (HMI) and MZD Connect*, Mazda’s next-generation in-car connectivity system that efficiently links the driver to the car and the outside world. A human-centric perspective was adopted in the pursuit of advanced safety based on the Mazda Proactive Safety philosophy to appeal to the senses and sensations through which people experience cars and enable the driver to fully enjoy the driving experience.
* Known as Mazda Connect in Japan, Canada, the U.S. and Mexico.

Bellissima...ricorda molto la prima serie!!! Peccato non si abbiano ancora news sui motori.

Saggezza giapponese. :wink:

A me piace parecchio, anche se lo stile non è originalissimo. Il parafango posteriore mi ricorda quello della Z3 e il frontale quello della Honda S2000.

Belli gli interni.

Chissà se hanno ampliato un po' il bagagliaio, ma non credo poi tanto, viste le dimensioni.

Ho sentito di due motori: un 1.5 da 140 cv e di un 2.0 da 180

Tizy_juiced · 4 Settembre 2014

che bella!! Ma i motori?

Ale_72 · 4 Settembre 2014

Del 1.5 avevo letto anche io. Mi domando se i propulsori saranno gli stessi per la verisone giappo e la verisone abarth.

PS pare 1.000 kg. Fosse vero, figata!

se la mettono in produzione con:

2.0 serio (i turbo ormai van di moda)

autobloccante

interni ben fatti

è davvero un bel giocattolo...mi piacerebbe averne una

actarus8v · 4 Settembre 2014

davanti a mio avviso non è riuscitissima......per il resto mi pare una bella e interessante vettura /emoticons/wink@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20" />

SkyLuke · 4 Settembre 2014

Dai video in pista pare fosse turbo...

Tizy_juiced · 4 Settembre 2014

E' veramente stupenda..mi piace un sacco. Arma da trackday per i pistini e auto da guida spensierata...gestione bassa, handling ottimo..speriamo sia davvero così! [MENTION=19514]zeno75[/MENTION] non puoi non essere contento stavolta.
