Mazda MX-5 RF to debut at Goodwood

The new Mazda MX-5 RF will be revealed at the forthcoming Goodwood Festival of Speed.

It will be the European debut for the car after being showcased at the New York Motor Show back in March.

The RF features a retractable hardtop with a front, middle and rear roof sections and a rear screen. The top is lowered allowing the front and middle portions to be stored, while the rear glass stays in place.

“With the all-new Mazda MX-5 RF we freed ourselves from traditional ways of thinking and took on fresh challenges in order to create something new. Our aim was a convertible sports car with gorgeous fastback lines when the roof is closed and an exhilarating open-air feeling when open”, explained Nobuhiro Yamamoto, Mazda MX-5 programme manager.

Mazda will also use the Goodwood event to reveal its MX-5 Spyder and Speedster concept cars as well as mark the one-millionth production of the popular MX-f model.
