Posted on UK Channel 2023/10/05 Thanks to the owners who lent us their cars! : NA: / fms_jphallen NB: / ian_barsby_automotive_artist NC: https://www.autowerks2010.com/ ND: / danielseago.photographer MX 5 Owners Club: https://mx5oc.co.uk/ Mazda MX-5 fans, the wait is over! We're going to get all the generations of the Mazda Roadster and put them against each other in a drag race! Let's compare the four FR sports cars. Let's start with the NA, which was released in 1989. It's equipped with a 1.8L naturally aspirated four-cylinder engine that produces a maximum output of 131 horsepower and a maximum torque of 152 Nm. The power is sent to the rear wheels via a five-speed manual gearbox, and the car weighs 990 kg. Next to it is Matt's late NB model. Launched in 1998, under the hood is a 1.8L naturally aspirated 4-cylinder engine that produces 146 horsepower and 168 Nm. Like the NA, the power is sent to the rear wheels via a 5-speed manual gearbox, but the car weighs a little more at 1,065 kg. Next up is the NC, which has a 2.0L naturally aspirated 4-cylinder engine that produces 160 horsepower and 188 Nm, and sends the power to the rear wheels via a 6-speed manual gearbox. At 1,100 kg, it is the heaviest of the roadsters featured this time. And finally, we have the latest ND Roadster, the anniversary model! Under the hood is a 2.0L naturally aspirated 4-cylinder engine that produces 184 horsepower and 205 Nm, making it the most powerful car this time. The power is sent to the rear wheels via a 6-speed manual gearbox, and the car weighs 1,030 kg. Will the ND Roadster be the sole winner? Or will the older model be the surprise winner? There's only one way to find out....Let's Race! Please note that due to translation limitations, the subtitles may not be faithful to Matt's comments.
