I say mazda should build their next 2 and 3 on a (stretched) miata platform to spread the R&D and give us some good rwd hatchbacks

Of course, what with all the recent invasions from China and Russia these days...

“Screamin’ eagle”, really? Who’s in charge of their marketing department, a bunch of 12 year olds?

Hey, at least you guys get the turbo, the top version in europe for any mazda is the NA 2.5, which is both slower than a turbo 2.0 and more expensive in taxes

Insurance covers the glass, they won't cover anything that's stolen because the doors weren't locked

7,2 is a lot when everyone is aiming at the 4-5l range or lower...

They certainly are trying harder than Subaru did the last decade

Agreed except during the winter, i'm not bothering if one trip to work is going to make it look just as filthy as before

Apparently only by taking a 89€/year subscription... Good job on the availability wrc

I like how these topics always bring out the armchair engineers that are clearly smarter tha the entire R&D department of an international company with decades of experience in the business

I wonder if the engineering team of a billion dollar company would overlook these basic questions...

This, i know that a 4.0 to 6.0 liter difference makes about 2k difference in yearly taxes. A 4.0 will set you back 2130 euros a year. A 6.0 will almost double that, that's 4k a year just for taxes

If you need it to haul stuff just get the gd van. Don't bother with a truck either, the van will carry more stuff in a safer way and cost you less

Yeah but we buy their oil so we need to pretend Iran are the bad guys

It’s funny how defenders always try to say failed communist experiments were not communist at all. Maybe it just means that the idea of communism is just a bs fairytale that doesn’t work?

Guaranteed there's nothing different under the hood than in a regular old forester. When in the past decade has a Japanese company made a showcar like this that isn't all show and no go?

Makes perfect sense for europe, they sell their stuff at the same price as the german big 3 but have interiors made by fisher price

Wow, almost as much as european/Japanese cars were making from a 2.0 i4 at the time, how impressive...

A berlingo is just another shitbox econovan, it's not like a 2cv at all

When was the last time there was an objectively good race at monaco?
