What engine is in a Mazda Rx8?
I want a car with a powerful engine that I can still use for my everyday commute without looking too flashy or giving up too much space, so the Mazda Rx8 seems like a good choice. Is the Rx8 a good Mazda model?

The 2011
Mazda Rx8
is equipped with a 1.3-liter Renesis two-rotor rotary engine. This engine can produce 212 horsepower, which isn’t exceptional but isn’t subpar either.However, you will have to opt for an older car if you want to purchase this particular model, as Mazda stopped making the Rx8 after the 2012 model year. The car was discontinued in Europe in 2010 because it didn’t meet emissions standards, so it was removed from production entirely shortly thereafter.
While there’s nothing wrong with buying an older car, it’s important to remember that older vehicles typically don’t last as long, since they already have some miles on them. As long as you’re okay with that, the Mazda Rx8 is a good choice for your next vehicle.
While you’re learning more about the Rx8, why not learn more about your insurance options, too? Check out the
