This one’s for you, Mazda MX-5 fans… We’ve got our hands on every generation of MX-5, and they’re going head-to-head in a drag race!
So let’s examine how these four RWD pocket rockets compare. Starting with the Mk1, it was released back in 1989, and it’s powered by a 1.8-litre naturally-aspirated 4-cylinder that can produce 131hp and 152Nm of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a 5-speed manual, and it tips the scales at 990kg.
Alongside it, we have Mat in the Mk2 facelift. This was released in 1998, and under the bonnet, you’ll find a 1.8-litre 4-cylinder that can put down 146hp and 168Nm. Just like the Mk1, power is sent to the rear wheels through a 5-speed manual, but this car is slightly heavier, weighing in at 1,065kg.
Next up is the Mk3. It’s powered by a 2-litre 4 cylinder that can produce 160hp and 188Nm, and this time power is sent to the rear wheels via a 6-speed manual. It’s the heaviest car in this line-up, tipping the scales at 1,100kg.
Then finally we have the newest car, the Mk4 - and it’s the anniversary edition! It’s housing a 2-litre 4-cylinder under the bonnet, and it’ll come as no surprise that it’s the most powerful car here, producing 184hp and 205Nm. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a 6-speed manual, and it weighs in at 1,030kg.
So will it be a clean sweep for the Mk4? Or could we see one of the older cars snatch a surprise win? There’s only one way to find out for sure… LET’S RACE!
