An Electric Mazda Miata Successor Is In The Works–With A Rotary Gas Engine

Remember the stunning Mazda Iconic SP concept that debuted at last year’s Japan Mobility Show? It’s a swoopy two-door sports car that was designed to showcase Mazda’s new direction for sports cars, all while paying homage to the legendary FD RX-7.
