wow that noisy engine, why did'nt mazda put in the boot, so double the battery size and put the wankle in the boot with rear wheel drive you would have a winner as opposed to this whiner
It's not that bad IRL. The audio of the video doesn't do it justice. It's a rather pleasant noise. But true - it still could be quieter. I've driven plenty of Toyota hybrids and half of them are way noisier. The engine sound during full acceleration of the ES300h is a disaster and a dealbreaker, unfortunately.
@@reginaldbowls7180 i have a bmw i3 rex the rex is noisy but i cant be heard in the car as it is under the floor in the back, I know what i am talking about...i love this mazda rex idea just needs 100 mile electric only range and bury that whiner in the back...
I think this is a better application for the rotary engine. Less wear and tear.
Probably. I'm so glad they are keeping it alive!
Awesome video! Love Mazda's engineering, they make damn reliable cars, and fun to drive too.
Cheers! Couldn't agree more! Plus Mazda seems to be rather underrated despite its efforts.
Would you dare buy one, with a rotary engine, considering their reputation?
What do we know about possible changes for 2025 models?
As far as I know its too early to tell. If any, then probably some software stuff.
When is it out?

You're the only Whiner in regard to this car..
And not Half as bright as you Think you are ~
It’s the most quiet engine in a phev ever. What are you talking about?

i3 could be quieter indeed. I hope to drive one some day.
