2022 Mazda MX-5 Miata: Pricing & Packaging

Mazda has announced updates to the two-seat roadster, the MX-5 Miata.

The 2022 Mazda MX-5 Miata is a pure driver’s car – well balanced and light weight with an outstanding power-to-weight ratio. Whether driving through a winding canyon or a leisurely trip around the neighborhood, the MX-5 Miata encourages drivers to keep driving. The 2022 MX-5 Miata will be available in dealerships this winter.

Engine Options

All MX-5 models have rear-wheel drive and come equipped with the Skyactiv-G 2.0-liter engine that delivers an inspiring 181 horsepower at 7,000 rpm and 151 lb-ft of torque at 4,000 rpm.

For 2022, MX-5 Miata Sport and Club models are exclusively paired with a six-speed manual transmission and MX-5 Miata Grand Touring is offered in either the manual transmission or a quick-shifting six-speed automatic transmission with steering wheel paddle shifters.

MX-5 designers focused on every detail to minimize any excessive weight to help maintain the Miata’s lightweight physique without compromising safety or design. Some of those details include using aluminum for the power plant frame, front fenders, hood, and trunk.

Kinematic Posture Control

With every generation and every model year, Mazda is continuously improving the MX-5 Miata to further deepen the sense of connection between the driver and car. Kinematic Posture Control (KPC) is the next step in that constant evolution, offering an improvement in high-g cornering precision and confidence. KPC is an all-new technology developed by Mazda that manages different vehicle systems to help the MX-5 Miata behave as a harmonious extension of the driver’s body without adding a single gram of weight.

For ride comfort and stability during everyday or spirited driving, the MX-5 Miata’s rear suspension is already designed to help keep the vehicle planted to the ground when the brakes are applied. KPC takes advantage of this and applies a very slight brake to the inner rear wheel during high-g cornering. This pulls down on that corner, suppressing body roll, and making steering response feel more linear through tight or rough corners. Slightly stronger braking is used when accelerating through a corner, enhancing the limited slip effect.

The MX-5 Miata maintains its engaging and nimble everyday driving and now, with KPC, it has more precise dynamics on more spirited roads. The result is more confidence and driving enjoyment.
