Comfort and Ease-of-Use

The cabin of the Mazda MX-5 facelift model offers enhanced comfort. The door cupholders, for instance, do not protrude into the cabin anymore, which provides more space to the occupants' legs. The armrests and the floor console lid have new pads for better comfort. The Roadster Coupe's retractable hard top is also one of the industry's easiest to use. It opens and closes in just 12 seconds - one of the segment's fastest - and does not take away any boot space when open. The soft top opens and closes manually in just a few seconds. The boot itself inherits the original model's size of 150 litres and can be opened easily by pushing a button either on the dashboard or on the remote key.
