Just saw this article.
Much more interesting was the preview of Mazdas next-generation roadster, which was shown devoid of sheet metal but with its powertrain and suspension parts fully exposed.
The powertrain uses the automakers Skyactiv technology that optimizes the power of naturally aspirated engines with ultra high compression while adapting strategies meant to improve the efficiency of other powertrain components. According to Mazda, the new Miata will be 220 pounds lighter than the current model.
