    Mazda RX9 - When will Mazda launch the next rotary sport car?

    Will Mazda build an RX-9 to replace the RX-7 and RX-8?

    The short answer is: nobody knows.

    Recent rumours suggest that a hybrid-powered piston-engined coupe with a small rotary range-extender engine might be under consideration, or even a non-rotary-powered piston-hybrid sports car bearing the 'RX-9' badge may be in the pipeline. With Mazda developing inline six-cylinder petrol engines, the latter might be more on the money.

    But a low-volume expensive coupe is probably not on Mazda's priorities list, sadly.

    Thank you.
