At the Japan Mobility Show Mazda unveiled the Iconic SP, a concept car that marries together a dual rotary power train with an EV platform, a powertrain approach most recently launched in the all-new Mazda MX-30 R-EV.
The Mazda Iconic SP is a compact sports car concept designed to adapt to a new era.
The concept achieves a low centre of gravity to deliver better driving performance. Its proportions are made possible by a low bonnet, achieved by mounting the lightweight and compact rotary engine in the centre of the car.
The idea of a two-rotor rotary EV system would deliver a highly scalable engine with a flexible layout and the ability to burn a variety of fuels, including hydrogen, making it a technology that is ideal for sports car packages. And if the battery is charged with electricity derived from renewable energy, it is possible to drive in a virtually carbon-neutral state.
