A Streetcar Named Desire: Mazda MX-5 Miata with a Morning Glory [Video]


Someone just gave a new meaning to the saying that "some men see their car as an extension of their male reproductive organ while others behave as if it's a replacement for it".

Hiding somewhere between a pair of oversized balls at the rear end and the glans (see, we did our medical homework before posting this story) on the tip of the car, is a first generation Mazda MX-5 / Miata roadster.

The hows and whys behind the erection of this mobile tally whacker remain elusive, though Youtube poster, Allandiablo, says it was being filmed at the time and that it could be for an upcoming episode of Rob Dyrdek's Fantasy Factory TV show on MTV.

Mazda to Launch Customized Versions of CX-5, Mazda3, RX-8, MX-5 et al at Tokyo Auto Salon


It may not have the same international flavor as the Tokyo Motor Show, but the Tokyo Auto Salon, which will take place in Chiba, Japan, from January 13 to 15, is nevertheless an event that will draw the attention of all Japanese car manufacturers.

Mazda was the first to announce its line-up for the auto salon, led by the new CX-5 that will be launched in Japan next spring. The new compact-size crossover will be shown in two versions: the standard model, and a customized special edition sporting red bodywork color, matte-black alloy wheels and a slightly lower ride height.

Rumors: Four-Seat Coupe to Join Next-Gen Mazda6 Range?


When you put the words "Mazda" and "Coupe" together, they immediately conjure images of models like the RX-7 and RX-8. Especially the latter since, save for the Japanese market-only Spirit R special, the RX-8 has being discontinued for the rest of the world.

Mazda has already confirmed that it is not giving up on the rotary engine that has become synonymous with its larger rear-wheel drive coupes.

2014 Mazda MX-5 to Return to its Roots, Get a Small-Displacement Turbocharged Engine


[2003 Mazda Ibuki Concept pictured above]
During the last two decades, most new models are bigger, safer, better equipped but also heavier than the vehicles they replace. The Mazda MX-5 is a typical example: the first generation launched in 1989 tipped the scales at just 980 kg (2,150 lb), while the current, third-generation model starts from 1,095 kg (2,410 lb). Sure, it’s roomier and more luxurious, but it’s also more expensive and, although in no way a boring car, not quite as fun to drive as the original. In addition, you need to get the 2.0-liter engine to have the same kind of poke the original enjoyed with a 1.6-liter engine and its successor with a 1.8-liter unit.
Mazda intends to perform a “back to basics” feat with the next iteration of its little roadster that is due in 2014. “We will return to the original. It will be lightweight and the cost will be lightweight too. It will be easy to handle and fun to drive," Mazda's head of research and development, Hirotaka Kanazawa, told British publication What Car?.
The Hiroshima-based carmaker is heavily promoting its new Skyactiv technologies. It’s natural, therefore, to use all the tech in the new MX-5 which, thanks to its low weight that will be around 1,000 kg (2,200 lb), won’t need a big-displacement engine.
In fact, as Kanazawa revealed, the fourth generation will be the first MX-5 to shun normally aspirated engines in favor of a small displacement turbocharged Skyactiv unit rumored to be a 1.3-liter four-cylinder engine.
Sources from within the company have revealed that the “back to basics” philosophy also applies to its handling, which will be more driver focused and less comfort oriented than today’s car.
As far as the styling is concerned, the next MX-5 will adopt Mazda’s new “Kodo” design language introduced in the 2010 Shinari concept and the Tokyo-launched Takeri concept that previews the next Mazda6.

Mazda Hints at Next Mazda6 with Diesel-Powered Takeri Concept in Tokyo


Arguably, the Takeri concept is Mazda’s most important attraction at this week's Tokyo Motor Show. Intended to showcase the styling of the Mazda6's replacement that is due in 2013, it adopts many elements of the new “Kodo” design introduced in the Shinari concept, which is also on display at the firm's Tokyo stand.

Powering the 4,850mm long four-door sedan study is the new SKYACTIV-D 2.0-liter diesel engine linked to the firm's new 6-speed automatic transmission.

The Takeri is also fitted with Mazda’s i-stop idling stop system and a unique regenerative braking system called ‘i-ELOOP’ (Intelligent Energy Loop). The i-ELOOP is billed as the world’s first kinetic energy recovery system that uses a capacitor and a 25V to 12V alternator instead of a traditional battery pack.

The 42nd edition of the biennial Tokyo Motor Show that opens for the public on December 3 will see Mazda unveiling a new prototype version of its Japanese domestic market Biante people carrier.

Mazda Develops i-ELOOP Capacitor-Based Regenerative System, Debuts on Takeri Concept


Regenerative braking systems that store energy into batteries during braking are becoming increasingly common in new cars because they help reduce fuel consumption.

Today, Mazda presented what it claims to be the world’s first passenger vehicle regenerative system that uses a capacitor instead of a battery pack for storing energy, named i-ELOOP (“Intelligent Energy Loop”).

2009 Mazda 6 and 2 Hot Bikini Girls Cars

Mazda-6-2009 and-2-hot-bikini
2009 Mazda 6 and 2 Hot Bikini Girls – The 2009 Mazda 6 is a front-wheel-drive medium sedans. Models with i prefix comes with four-cylinder engine, while the model with s prefix come with the V6. This car is really nice to drive, both in town and out of town.
2009 Mazda 6 is powered by one engine four-cylinder 2.5-liter or 3.7 liter V6. The four produces 170 horsepower and 167 pound-feet of torque, while the V6 pumps out 272 hp and 269 lb-ft. A six-speed manual transmission is standard on four-cylinder model. Fuel-economy estimates stand at 20 mpg city/29 highway and 23 combined for four-cylinder model with manual transmission, while the five-speed automatic increase rate of four to 21 mpg city/30 highway and 24 combined.
The 2009 Mazda 6 completely redesigned offering upsized dimensions and powertrains that placed parallel to the segment leaders, but most retain a distinctive character fun-to-drive.
But you still will see sporty reflexes that consumers have come to expect from this brand-oriented performance. Minimal body roll with a standard family sedan, and the steering is light but responsive. as 6 enlarged about 150 pounds heavier than its predecessor.
 Mazda-6-2009 and-2-hot-bikini-girls
2009 Mazda 6 is at or near the head of its class in many ways. As usual, though, Chevrolet Malibu, Honda Accord, Hyundai Sonata, Nissan Altima, Subaru Legacy and Toyota Camry. Each has its own strengths and weaknesses, but few can match the all-around 6 competence and attractiveness.
So Mazda aims higher with new ways 6, higher. If buyers want size, and surveys show that they do, the 2009 model leapfrogs Camry dimension to shade the soil behind the bulked-up Accord, largest of the imports.
Handling is very impressive for a large family sedan, but 6 did not feel as tossable in the corner as the Altima, and the steering is lighter and more flexible than the Nissan’s agile. There may be enough to enlarge the chassis is to calm those who want to drive, while the average shopper will appreciate the 6′s enough to go up accordingly.
Mazda 6 Base Price: $ 19,300 – $ 29,010

Mazda Turbo2 Concept promises forced-induction frolicking - Automotive Cars Pictures

Mazda Turbo2 Concept 
If the Mazda2 needs anything, it's a little more pep in its step. Mazda has moved to address that ail with the SEMA 2011 Turbo2 Concept. Boasting a direct-injection 2.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, the small hatch is crammed with 263 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque. Those are the kinds of figures that are sure to slather a grin across your face, especially given that Mazda has managed to trim the concept's weight down to a skinny 2,300 pounds. Mazda also reminds us that this vehicle wears the company's largest forced-induction four-cylinder engine in its smallest vehicle platform. Zoom-Zoom indeed.

The Turbo2 Concept rocks a set of Brembo brakes to bring the whole party to a stop in a hurry, and the suspension has received its fair share of attention as well. HR coilovers, Corksport sway bars front and rear and Yokohama rubber all help keep the tiny hatch glued to the track. In fact, if this is all looking rather serious for a showcar, that's because it is – this car was built by the folks at Autobarn for use in One Lap of America with blessings from the Japanese automaker, though it has since been the recipient of a splashy new look.

So, will we see a version of it production? There's always a chance that Mazda will give the world a Mazdaspeed2 to chew on. In the meantime, if you can't wait and want this exact car, Autoblog reader Pete L. notes that it's for sale by the Autobarn folks, though it's a costly little number: $94,999. Eek.

Cars Mazda Takeri concept to debut at Tokyo Motor Show

Mazda Takeri Concept
Mazda Takeri Cars concept to debut at Tokyo Motor Show

With the Mazda6 sedan on its last legs, the Zoom-Zoom automaker is rolling into its home exhibition at the 2011 Tokyo Motor Show with the Takeri concept you see here.

The midsize sedan concept adopts Mazda's latest Kodo design language in a conventional three-box shape that could provide a preview of what to expect from the next 6. The show car packs the company's SkyActiv-D diesel engine (a 2.2-liter twin-turbo four-cylinder with a lowered compression ratio for a 20% improvement in efficiency over a conventional oil-burner) with stop-start engine management and regenerative braking – a new feature for Mazda.

The Takeri show car will be officially unveiled (along with the CX-5 and Shinari concept that make their Japanese debuts) when the doors open at the Tokyo International Exhibition Center on November 30. In the meantime you can check out the images in our high-res gallery and read the full press release after the jump.
