A Detailed Review<\/strong><\/a><strong><\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3>Which Engine Powers the 2024 Mazda MX-5 Miata RF?&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Mazda didn\u2019t mess around under the hood. This little coupe packs a SKYACTIV\u00ae-G 2-liter DOHC 4-cylinder engine with 181 hp and 151 lb.-ft. of torque to back it up. Thanks to the 13:1 compression ratio and electronically controlled fuel injection, this car loves to rev and pulls confidently when you&#8217;re accelerating out of a curve.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What makes it even better? That front midship engine paired with rear-wheel drive. The balance feels on point\u2014whether weaving through mountain roads or cruising down the coast. And if you like to stay in control, the SKYACTIV\u00ae-MT 6-speed manual with a short-throw shifter is incredibly satisfying. Prefer paddle shifters? The 6-speed Sport automatic has your back.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Read more &#8211; <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flagshipmazda.com\/blog\/is-the-interior-of-the-2025-mazda-cx-30-comfortable\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Explore the Interior Amenities of the 2025 Mazda CX-30<\/strong><\/a><strong><\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3>What Type of Suspension Is Available in the 2024 Mazda MX-5 Miata?&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Underneath the body, Mazda gave it a monocoque unibody with a backbone frame and sport-tuned suspension. The double wishbone front and multilink rear setup (with aluminum components and monotube dampers) gives you confident control and nimble handling. The asymmetric, torque-sensing limited-slip differential on manual models keeps things tight in the corners. Add in Electric Power Steering and 4-wheel disc brakes with Electronic Brakeforce Distribution and Brake Assist, and this ride responds like it&#8217;s reading your mind.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"768\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/694\/2025\/05\/16031806\/2025_Mazda_MX-5_Miata_RF_b02_o.jpg\" alt=\"suspension and brakes in action in the 2025 Mazda MX-5 Miata RF\" class=\"wp-image-797\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/694\/2025\/05\/16031806\/2025_Mazda_MX-5_Miata_RF_b02_o.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/694\/2025\/05\/16031806\/2025_Mazda_MX-5_Miata_RF_b02_o-300x195.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"768\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/694\/2025\/05\/16031803\/2025_Mazda_MX-5_Miata_RF_b03_o.jpg\" alt=\"dashboard view of the 2025 Mazda MX-5 Miata RF\" class=\"wp-image-796\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/694\/2025\/05\/16031803\/2025_Mazda_MX-5_Miata_RF_b03_o.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/694\/2025\/05\/16031803\/2025_Mazda_MX-5_Miata_RF_b03_o-300x195.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Read more &#8211; <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flagshipmazda.com\/blog\/benefits-of-mazda-i-activ-awd-in-puerto-rico\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Is AWD Worth It in Puerto Rico?
