The Mazda RX-8 is a two-door, four-seat sports car that was produced by Mazda from 2003 to 2012. The RX-8 is notable for its use of a rotary engine, a type of internal combustion engine that features a rotating combustion chamber rather than pistons. The RX-8's engine, a 1.3-liter Renesis rotary, produces 238 horsepower and 159 lb-ft of torque. The engine is paired with a six-speed manual transmission or a five-speed automatic transmission. The RX-8 features a unique "Freestyle" door design, where the rear doors swing open backwards from the center pillar, allowing for easy access to the rear seats. The RX-8 was designed to be a sporty and fun-to-drive car, and it achieved this goal through its lightweight construction, powerful engine, and responsive handling. The car's suspension is tuned for a sporty ride, and its brakes are powerful and effective. The RX-8 was praised by automotive journalists for its performance and handling, and it was also popular with enthusiasts for its unique style and driving experience. However, the RX-8 also faced some criticisms, primarily regarding its fuel economy and reliability. The rotary engine, while powerful and exciting, is known for its thirst for fuel and its susceptibility to wear and tear. Furthermore, the RX-8's rear seats are cramped and difficult to access, and its interior is not considered particularly luxurious for its price point. Despite these drawbacks, the RX-8 remains a popular and desirable car for those who appreciate its unique engine, sporty handling, and distinctive style.
