    Mazda MX-5 2024 Engine

    A 2.0-litre naturally aspirated four-cylinder engine is the only one available in the MX-5 range. It makes 135kW and 205Nm, and can be paried with a six-speed manual in any variant, or a six-speed automatic in GT variants.

    It uses between 6.8L and 7.2L, depending on transmission and body style, for every 100km covered according to the official WLTP combined cycle test.

    Mazda MX-5 2024 FAQs

    Should I buy a used MX-5?

    The MX-5 is a great little sports car for someone looking for some fun on the road.

    The earliest ones are getting a little long in the tooth and are looking a little tired.

    Go for an NC model, that's from 2005-on, and you shouldn't go wrong. They're reliable, user-friendly, they look good, and they're great fun to drive.

    Look for a low-mileage example and avoid any that look like they might have been used in competition.

    Best options for a fun convertible?

    The easiest question on record. Get an MX-5 and you'll have all the sunshine and fun you want. The only problem will be choosing between the 1.6 and 2.0-litre engines. Most prefer the "big-bore" engine but I like the engagement you get with the smaller one.

    Mustang, 370Z, IS350F, 86 or MX-5?

    If you don’t want a convertible, which rules out the MX-5 as my easy first pick, then the 86 is the car for driving enjoyment on a reasonable budget. But don’t overlook its Subaru twin, the BRZ, which is my choice of the two. Both get The Tick, having shared our Car of the Year award.

    Mazda MX-5 2024 Boot Space

    The MX-5 is not built for much luggage, and could handle a two-person quantity of weekend getaway luggage in its 130-litre boot, though the RF hardtop takes up a small amount more space thanks to its mechanism and has only 127 litres of space.

    Seating is limited to two in the Mazda MX-5, with both being manually adjustable sports seats in every variant. The driver seat also has tilt adjustment.

    The base Roadster and RF have cloth trim for the seats, while GT and GT RS variants have heated black leather seats. There's tan Nappa leather upholstery in the RF GT Black Roof edition.

    Mazda MX-5 2024 Speed

    Mazda hasn't quoted an official 0-100km/h acceleration time for the updated ND, but a 2.0-litre MX-5 roadster can be expected to hit three digits on the speedo in a little over 6.5 seconds with an experienced driver, depending on variant and conditions.

    Mazda MX-5 2024 Interior

    The MX-5's interior is quite sparse, with simple materials and few features - keeping focus on the task at hand: driving.

    An 8.8-inch touchscreen is now found in the 2024 MX-5, while storage remains limited. Two removable cupholders can be placed between the seats or one above the passenger footwell, while a small storage cubby is accessible between the seats. There's also a tiny central compartment, which fits the MX-5's key fob nicely.

    Mazda MX-5 2024 Towing Capacity

    The 2024 Mazda MX-5 has no towing capacity for the selected year. Some models also offer heavy-duty or towing option packs which can increase towing capacity, as well as options which can hamper towing capacity. Towing capacities can vary wildly on a large number of factors. These include engine, transmission, model, and options chosen. Always check with the manufacturer or in your vehicles handbook before attempting to tow anything.

    Mazda MX-5 2024 Range

    The MX-5 has a hypothetical maximum driving range of 662km due to its 45L fuel tank (using 95 RON) and claimed minimum fuel consumption figure of 6.8L/100km, but in the real world that figure is unlikely to be met, with a conservative range in the mid-500kms more likely.
