This mod presents a conceptual fifth generation of the Mazda MX-5, known as the NE, continuing the lineage from the ND while adopting a more modern design and updated mechanical layout.
It includes several versions — the base 1.5, the more powerful 2.0, a 2.0 Supercharged option, and an R-EV electric variant derived from the MX-30’s rotary generator system. Each trim offers distinct performance characteristics, from the SKYACTIV-G engines to the electric motor setup.
The car features revised proportions, a refreshed front fascia, and a subtle ducktail trunk design, all balanced by careful suspension tuning to manage the small increase in weight and size.
Ideal for fans of the Mazda MX-5 lineup who want to imagine how the next generation might evolve, this mod blends classic roadster charm with forward-looking design and technology.
