More 'Next-Rotary' news, and it's not absurd

vendredi 10 octobre 2014

I imagine these two articles will be hitting the site soon anyway, so just getting it going.



This article: Mazda Rotary Sports Car Could get Electric Turbocharger



Which references this one: Mazda rotary details firm - motoring.com.au



Read the 2nd article first.





For once, it isn't an article that is completely full of hot air and rumor mongering. It actually has quotes, details about Mazda's internal R+D occurances, and the speculation that they do have, isn't wild absurdities. The timelines are also reasonable (not a new production car in 2017, just a 'reveal', which is entirely possible), the technology is already referenced and supported, and while there is no confirmation of this:


Quote:








We've heard that a prototype based on a reinforced rear-drive MX-5 platform has been testing at a racetrack in northern Japan and its signature rotary exhaust note was unmistakable. A couple of months earlier, a turbocharged RX-8-based mule was also spied testing in Japan.



...there is more than a bit of believability to it.



There may actually be something to what it says here, as long as you ignore the artist renderings (which very few people seem to be able to do).
