Mazda has finally shared information about the highly expected 2025 RX-9, a sports car that will change the game.
There are elements of the famous RX series in the RX-9 that are also true to Kodo's design theory. Its low, flowing shape makes me think of a hunter watching its prey, a hint at the power that's hiding under the hood. Sharp character lines and a curved back end make the RX-9 look even more sporty. The signature pop-up headlights, which are a nod to older RX models, give the car a nostalgic feel without taking away from its modern look. From the aggressive front grille to the built-in rear spoiler, every part of the car looks like it was designed with a specific purpose in mind, offering an exciting driving experience.
The RX-9 has a next-generation rotary engine called the Skyactiv-R that was designed to make driving it pure fun. This revolutionary powerplant is the result of years of work to improve on earlier rotary versions and get around their problems. There are rumors that it has the right mix of thrilling performance and high-level efficiency. It is believed that the Skyactiv-R will keep the high-revving sound that rotary engines are known for, making an exciting sound that will get your heart racing. Power numbers are still being kept secret, but rumors of a hybrid-assist system suggest that it might have more than 450 horsepower. This means that the car can go very fast and handle very well, making it great for carving up mountain roads or taking the lead on the racetrack.
The RX-9's great handling is helped even more by the fact that it is very light and its weight is evenly distributed. Mazda carefully made a frame that is both rigid and flexible. This makes sure that the steering responds precisely and that the car stays stable even at high speeds. Advanced suspension tuning promises to increase grip and decrease body roll, which will keep you firmly on the ground around every turn. Aerodynamic improvements, like a front splitter that works and vents that are put in the right places, work together to create downforce and make the car handle better overall.
Official price and availability information hasn't been released yet, but the starting MSRP is thought to be around $70,000. This price seems fair when you think about the RX-9's cutting-edge technology, renowned rotary engine, and driver-focused design. Later this year, pre-orders should start, and shipping will start in early 2025. The release of the RX-9 is a big deal for Mazda, both because it's their return to the rotary engine and because they want to give drivers the best experience possible. The RX-9 offers a truly unforgettable driving experience, no matter how much you know about high-performance sports cars or how new you are to them.
