Mazda again puts the rotary engine's resurrection on the back burner
Mazda's on-again, off-again next-generation rotary engine is in limbo once more. It was unveiled as a range extender for the MX-30, but the firm backpedaled and said it's too early to tell when or if it will reach production.
"We are still considering using the rotary engine as a range extender, but the timing of its introduction is undecided," explained Mazda spokesperson Masahiro Sakata in an interview with industry trade journal Automotive News.
