I don't mind the idea of the Skyactive technology but I think I'd need to add a couple more long range tanks if I dropped a Wankel under the bonnet!

Can't beat them for power though. Love the 787B.

I used to have a s4 rx7 13bt with gt3540 turbo.... loved that car.

 

[rabbit-chop]

Mazda certainly keeping details on the new rx close to their chest though. Pipe dreams afiac

That 787B sounds almost F1 ish. Very Nice! And the six rotor thing like some sick running chainsaw.

We'll have to see if they can get past the fuel economy and emissions hurdles.

They need to attach a bucket to the exhaust tip to collect the unburt fuel...
If they could make it as efficient as a regular four stroke petrol & make the apex seals more durable, itd b a great engine

For sure, the concept was great. Nothing comes to a stop and goes back the other way.
