NEAR 50/50 BALANCE

The MX-5 Miata is designed to be complete once you sit inside. Only then does it achieve a nearly 50/50 front-to-rear weight distribution— the ideal balance for optimal handling and performance.

STYLING THAT SUITS YOU

Your connection to the car begins with its looks. Which is why the 2019 MX-5 Miata offers two soft-top color options. Choose between classic Black or the new available Brown so people see your style whenever you choose to drive with the top up.

LIGHTER BY DESIGN

Adding power is easy. Retaining lightness, at the same time, takes innovation. The improvements to the SKYACTIV^®-G 2.0L engine have made a vehicle with increased power and nearly no weight penalty. A difference you’ll feel in every curve and corner.

RACING HERITAGE

The MX-5 Miata was born for the track and twisty roads. By pushing our cars to the extreme in fast-paced and unforgiving environments, we learn valuable lessons about safety, performance, efficiency and reliability. And that translates into a better car for you— both on the road and on the track. After all, more Mazdas are road-raced on any given weekend than any other car.⁷

TIMELESS STYLE

With its sleek lines, captivating design and soft top the MX-5 Miata is inspired by classic roadsters of the 1960s. Whether you choose classic Black or the new available Brown, the MX-5 Miata fits your style with the top up or down.

HERITAGE TAILLIGHTS

Round taillights have been a signature MX-5 Miata detail since the first one rolled off the line over 29 years ago. Like the joy it elicits in drivers, some things aren’t meant to change.

EXPRESSIVE DETAILS

The available LED Daytime Running Lights are angled outward to further emphasize the car’s athletic posture.

FORM IS FUNCTION

The sharply sloped hood suggests forward motion, granting the driver maximum visibility, while prominent edges on the front fenders provide reference points for you to accurately place the tires. Whether you’re leaning into curves, maneuvering through switchbacks or driving on the glorious open road.

POWER AND CONFIDENCE

This is the addition enthusiasts have been waiting for. The almost entirely new SKYACTIV®-G 2.0-liter engine offers 181 hp and revs to a maximum of 7,500 rpm. Lighter pistons and connecting rods, along with an increase in valve spring rates, larger throttle-body openings and a freer-flowing exhaust system are just a few changes made to increase power without adding weight to the engine. Creating balance and oneness between driver and vehicle. 

NEAR 50/50 BALANCE

The MX-5 is designed to be complete once you get inside. Only then does it achieve nearly 50/50 front-to-rear weight distribution— the ideal balance for optimal handling and performance.

SKYACTIV TECHNOLOGY

Wherever possible, the MX-5 Miata underwent painstaking weight loss. Even with the more powerful engine, the MX-5 Miata has lost 141 pounds⁸ from the previous generation. Even the window glass is lighter. Bringing its weight down to 2,339 pounds for manual transmission models. You may not see it but you’ll feel it, as SKYACTIV^® TECHNOLOGY contributes to the MX-5’s lightness around every corner.

6-SPEED MANUAL

The MX-5 Miata’s 6-speed manual transmission is smaller and lighter than the previous generation, but it keeps its famed short-throw precision.

A TRULY CONNECTED DRIVE

Imagine an archer on horseback, riding toward a target. He inhales and exhales in perfect harmony with his horse’s gait. The horse steadies as the archer pulls back his arrow. Perfect shot. This relationship between horse and rider is called Jinba Ittai. It’s a 900-year-old Japanese tradition, but it’s more important to us now than ever. We strive to engineer this connection into each and every one of our cars. The MX-5 Miata, being a true driver’s car, is certainly no exception.

30 Years Of Miata

The 30th anniversary of Miata is fast approaching. And our appreciation and dedication to its roadster heritage has never been stronger. This legacy has made the MX-5 Miata the best-selling roadster of all time.
