Always loved the wankel.

Next rotary from Mazda will be a hybrid using a two rotor to charge the batteries. Blech.

Those are fucking dead brains. Thinking they have something to show. Not subtle, not clean and tidy.

Have to disagree most Mazdas are well made. They get passed over a lot but they're generally solid cars.

Not really. It's more like a two stroke engine similar to a motorcycle. Using two rotors in 1.3 liter package. Bout the size of a suitcase. You can upgrade a 7 to a dual turbo 3 rotor engine that can put some serious power down on the rear wheels.

They'll never resurrect the proper rotary design. They could make a three rotor turbo engine sell for $150k and laugh to the bank but they don't. Rotaries in principal need oil injections while running to keep the apex seals solid. They also consume fuel like a mother fucker. The EPA hates them.
