Mazda RX-9 will be a hybrid
Next generation of the popular sports coupe RX-8 may be a hybrid. Last year, Mazda and Toyota signed an agreement, according to which the zoom-zoom brand can use hybrid technology, now used in the Prius hatchback. And immediately after that appeared the official statement: "the First hybrid Mazda will appear in 2013". About Mazda RX-9 so far very little information. We only know that the car will be built on the same platform as the MX-5 next generation, and that the creators have decided to abandon the architecture of the body, when the rear doors open in the opposite direction. If the rumors hold true, Mazda RX-9 will be the first hybrid rear-wheel drive sports coupe. And the car will remain rotary engine. The motor will have to improve fuel economy of Mazda CX-9. However, the main drawback of the novelties will be the lack of a manual transmission or, at worst, a robot with two clutches. The fact that Toyota hybrid setting to "friends" only with automatic transmission. Probably, rotary-hybrid car will be built on the basis of the Kabura concept. Meanwhile, the spies were able to photograph a brand new crossover CX-5.
