    I've had two RX-2s and loved the rotary engine. Been watching this model because it's got a lot of what I'm looking for. I had my first battery electric in 1997 which was a Rabbit conversion. I've had two Chevy Sparks and now a Bolt. The last bit of detail that might put me over the edge would be on how the HVAC is put together. You see the gas engine is a great source of heat. So it would be nice if the plumbing took advantage of that. Anybody know how it's laid out? Thanks if you don't. The dealership doesn't either.

    It starts at £35k, so I don't really see the benefit of this over an alternative full EV for most people. If you don't drive far, then other EVs meet your needs, whereas if you do, the rex is too thirsty anyway. You have to really love Mazda as a brand to go for this car, otherwise it doesn't make sense

      According to the verification on the Japanese RUclips channel, it had traveled 810KM. I think the maximum speed and climate differ depending on the country, so I don't think the results will be the same in all countries.

    Actually quite like this - wish it had another 10l+ of fuel tank!
    The main thing that puts me off though is the HVAC touch screen. Yes, there are some buttons. _Some_ buttons. Why not all buttons though? Or rotary knobs? You know, things that actually work and are possible to change on the move?
    That reason alone rules it out completely.

    Let’s hope what you say is true and it’s better than the previous Mazda rotary engines, they were uneconomical, use almost as much oil as petrol and never lasted past 70k

    • @shadowcoregaming7578
      @shadowcoregaming7578 5 месяцев назад +2

      To be fair the inefficient fuel consumption is expected in a sports/sporty car and it was somewhat competitive with its competition. As for the oil consumption it really isn't that bad. I own a rx8 and I never have to add oil to it in between my oil changes 3-5k miles. As for reliability it comes down to build quality and maintenance. Stay on top of it and don't do stupid stuff to the car and it lasts fine. My first engine lasted 166k miles before it started to lose compression and I bought another brand new from Mazda. Currently at 222k miles on everything but the engine with no issues and the engine has 56k miles with not problems. Don't buy into every stereotype u hear. Yes they have their problems but they aren't terrible engines.

    Sorry, I love Mazdas and came close to buying the full EV version of this last year (went for a Citroěn e-C4 instead with better space, longer range and a smoother ride), but I think this is a very badly-conceived product and a rare big miss for Mazda. Expensive, uneconomical, short battery-only range, short fuel range, poor tax breaks (in the UK), the list goes on. Its lovely design and beautiful engineering simply can't make up for so many shortcomings. And, I will not buy any car that does not have proper knobs and buttons for HVAC and audio - motor manufacturers' pursuit of economy/profit at the expense of user experience, convenience and safety is madness and if buyers want that ultra-modern and potentially lethal experience, they can go buy a Tesla instead.

      I disagree. This vehicle stands in a unique class of its own. You’re supposed to judiciously rely on electricity home / work charging to run the MX-30 R-EV. No daily home charge capability? Forget it.
      That’s its modus operandi. If you cannot adapt to that specific mode of operation or need a vehicle for long distances every single day, this is NOT for you. It’s not really a PHEV and shouldn’t be described as one.
      This car has a very unique operational skill set - and if you cannot adapt to using the preferred modus operandi - you don’t buy one.
      This is a thinking person’s EV with Rotary Range Extender (Battery Recharge Generator) capability. Any true NERD would also recognise what this is - and make a beeline for it.
      For regular commuting, that Rotary Range Extender will be barely used - especially if you don’t have a heavy foot all the time. It’s handy for the odd long distance journey - but not for long distances every single day.
      This would suit my lifestyle perfectly. And yes, I want one - and guess what? I’ve been driving a Prius for the last 10+ years.
      This is the perfect introduction to EV’s with a backup APU (Auxiliary Power Unit) to avoid the dreaded RANGE ANXIETY. You’ll never be stranded if you run out of charge.
      Thank you for a great unpretentious video - I think you’ve sold it to anyone intelligent enough to appreciate what this amazing and unique vehicle really is.
      p.s. This is a COUPE - hence the slightly reduced rear passenger space - which NO coupe lover would ever complain about.

      ​@@datathunderstorm correct me if im wrong. So the rotary engine makes it accelerate faster than normal EV? The gas + rotary engine size stores and convert more energy than of a same size battery?
