Report: Mazda could be mulling new turbo or MPS Miata MX-5 - eGMCarTech
But for some the basic Miata just isn’t enough and there are plenty of ways to get more oomph and performance out of one, ranging from various mods to even swapping in a Chevy V8. With the all-new generation out however, those holding out for some... According to Motoring, the new Miata MX-5 might get a turbocharged or even an MPS (Speed here in the US) version in the near future. As of now, the Miata only comes with a base 1. 5L SKYACTIV-G naturally-aspirated four-banger with 129hp and 110 lb-ft of torque in foreign markets, while the larger 2. 0L SKYACTIV-G four with 155hp and 148 lb-ft of torque is the only engine... The outlet spoke with Mazda’s head of global public relations, Kudo Hidetoshi, who hinted at the prospect of a turboed fourth-generation ND Miata. Not much else is known, but there’s also a possibility the Miata could employ Mazda’s larger 2. 5L SKYACTIV-G motor before a turbocharged variant surfaces. Source: www.egmcartech.com
