The 2022 Mazda MX-5 Miata RF is Fun Sized

The Mazda MX-5 Miata is pocket-sized but loaded with rocket fuel. Very few cars can provide the sensation the Mazda Miata can. So when the Japanese automaker claimed that the sporty roadster received additional enhancements for the 2022 model year, real enthusiasts questioned, can the Mazda Miata get any better? 

For 2022 the Mazda MX-5 Miata attains a new interior and exterior color and standard wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto for the Club trim. Furthermore, the six-speed automatic transmission option is exclusive to the Miata Grand Touring (the top-of-the-line) trim. Therefore, the Sport and Club trim only features the six-speed manuals.  

The fourth-generation “ND” Miata doesn’t veer too far from the formula that created the iconic roadster, which is already thirty years old, and for a good reason. Firstly, the sporty roadster holds a starting price under $30,000. There’s also the Miata’s lightweight, and without adding artificial preservatives such as frills, the Miata reigns an unparalleled thrill behind the wheel. 

The 2022 Mazda MX-5 enriches the adventure; even though the roadster is fun to drive, the automaker takes things up a notch by sharpening its cornering abilities. Thanks to Mazda’s Kinematic Posture Control (KPC) system, which reduces body roll with the application of the brakes to the inside rear wheel during cornering. Furthermore, KPS comes standard on all trim levels. 

For the 2022 model year, the MX-5 Miata’s 2.0-liter inline-four remains the same engine as its predecessor. Yet, even with the same engine as the 2021 Miata, the power is ample and can efficiently propel the sports car from 0-60 mph in less than 6 seconds. Moreover, the manual gearbox is a speed racer’s euphoria with its short, precise throw and brake and gas pedal placement that’s perfect for heel-toe shifting. 

“It’s been a while since I’ve driven a Miata, and I had forgotten what a good instructor it is. Everything you do has an immediate impact on what the car does. Throttle application, brake application, steering—every response is always on display.”
