The Mazda RX-8 is considered the successor of Mazda's sports car. Compared with traditional piston engines, the rotary engine has several advantages. The engine parts of the Mazda RX-8 are only 1.3 liters, but it generates 232 horsepower. It has a much lighter weight and fewer moving parts and accessories. This results in a near 50:50 weight distribution between the rear and front wheels. This is realized by the engine being mounted behind the axle and the gasoline tank being placed forward of the latter axle. The front suspension is equipped with double wishbones, while the rear suspension is multi-link. To reduce the weight, lightweight accessories and materials such as aluminum and plastic are used for various body panels. Except for the plastic front and rear bumper parts, other parts and accessories of the body are built of steel. The distinguishing feature of the RX-8 is its rear-hinged "freestyle" doors that allow easier access to the back seats. According to the design of Mazda engineers, it was able to attain a chassis rigidity rating of 30,000 Nm/deg.
Although the competitors of the Mazda RX-8 have more upgrades, the Mazda RX-8 maintains the status for its affordable price and practical cargo space, and passenger abilities.
