Recently, Mazda officially announced that its rotor engine is expected to make a comeback again, and this comeback form may be installed on the Mazda MX-30 model in the form of a range extension, and announced that the extended range version of the model will be officially released in March 2023. Of course, according to the current Mazda model, we still have a pure electric version of the model and a fuel version of the model to choose from, the fuel version of the model is also equipped with a 24v light mix system, in addition to the pure electric version of the pure electric mileage of 256 kilometers.
As early as before, there was news that Mazda's rotor engine would return again in some form, but Mazda's idea was to resurrect the rotor engine on the extended range version of the model, but the time was pushed to 2021, Mazda still did not disclose any news about the rotor engine, and the news that it had previously been exposed to be mounted on the MX-30 was also in vain, but launched a fuel version and a pure electric version. This leads to the belief that hybrid models with rotor engines as pseudo-range extenders may not be introduced.
But now, the situation has changed, according to Mazda official news confirmed that the rotor engine will indeed appear in front of everyone's eyes in the near future, but the engine will not be directly driven to drive the vehicle, but the way of the range extender continues to provide energy for the vehicle, so theoretically Mazda MX-30 is still essentially a tram, but it can be refueled to increase its range.
RX-7, RX-8 models can be described as a generation of glory on Mazda models, all use rotor engines but poor sales eventually let them out of the market, although very happy that the rotor engine can return but did not directly drive the vehicle will still make many fans slightly disappointed.
