The 2024 Mazda MX-5 is a petrol convertible with RWD and seating for 2. It belongs to the ND2 generation. The Grand Touring is the version described here, and the figures below refer to that configuration unless noted otherwise.
Performance
The featured Grand Touring version develops 181 hp and 213 Nm (157 lb-ft) of torque. Its listed 0-100 km/h time is 6.5 seconds, which is decisively quick for everyday road use. Top speed is listed at 219 km/h (136 mph). Its power output is about 36% below the peer average. Its 0-100 km/h time is about 18% slower than the peer average. The figures establish its straight-line performance on paper, but they do not substitute for measured braking, handling or ride-quality tests.
Fuel economy and range
The listed fuel consumption is 7.5 L/100km. Fuel-tank capacity is 45.0 litres (11.9 US gallons). Recorded CO2 emissions are 172 g/km. Consumption, emissions and range can be measured under different regional procedures, so like-for-like comparisons should use the same market and test cycle.
Dimensions and practicality
Its exterior dimensions are 3,915 mm (154.1 in) in length, 1,735 mm (68.3 in) in width, and 1,225 mm (48.2 in) in height, while the wheelbase measures 2,310 mm (90.9 in). Cargo capacity is listed at 130 litres (4.6 cu ft). The cabin is configured for 2 occupants. Listed curb weight is 1,075 kg (2,370 lb). That cargo volume is about 25% below the peer average. The measurements are useful for comparison, although seat comfort, access and the shape of the load area still need to be judged in person.
The model range
The recorded line-up consists of 2.0 Skyactiv-G, Sport, 1.5 Skyactiv-G Roadster, Grand Touring, and 2.0 Skyactiv-G RF. Across the range, the specifications span 132 hp to 184 hp and 6.5 s to 8.6 s, while listed starting prices run from $28,050-$35,200. Drivetrain, battery or engine choice, wheels and market equipment can all change the final figures, so the version table should be used when choosing between them.
In perspective
Compared with nearby petrol convertible models from the same period, the 2024 Mazda MX-5 is strongest on price, while power and cargo capacity stand out as the principal numerical compromise. That conclusion is drawn from the recorded specifications rather than a road test. A final choice should also account for local pricing, equipment, comfort and a test drive.
