The End of an Era Appears Somewhat Near for Everyoneâs Favorite Japanese Sports Car
Welp, it seems the inevitable is coming for everyoneâs favorite affordable Japanese sports car, as the next MX-5 Miata may be the last gas-powered one. Australiaâs CarExpert reports Mazda is preparing an all-electric model.
But donât bust out the pitchforks and axes just yet. Thankfully, said Miata EV wonât happen immediately. Instead, the imminent fifth-gen model will stick to gas power.
However, itâll apparently be the last to do so.
Mazda remains gung-ho about EVs
Despite other major automakers already pivoting away from their aggressive electrification strategies, Mazda supposedly remains steadfast with its trajectory. That includes fully electrifying the Miataâs successor after the upcoming fifth-gen replacement.
âOne of the executives who visited us early in the year said âyes, there will be a new one. When? We canât commentâ,â Mazda Australiaâs CEO, Vinesh Bhindi, told the Australian auto pub in a recent interview.
