We love a good engine here at Top Gear towers, especially good engines from Mazda. To be more specific, rotary engines from Mazda. Today, the company has confirmed it will finally return to the configuration it made famous via the likes of the RX-7 and 787B: it will build a rotary engine! It will not however, be on its own. It"s being rolled out as part of an electric drivetrain; a range extender to recharge an EV"s battery on longer runs. Yeah, sorry about getting you all excited. Mazda intends on building two battery-powered electric cars, the latter pairing up with the new engine. We"re told the new rotary able to run on LPG will be small, light and "exceptionally quiet". Oh dear, this isn"t going well.
