Mazda and Fiat have both formally disclosed that a Mazda-made Alfa Romeo roadster will be produced from 2015.
Further news confirm that it will be developed for the global market and will be based on the Mazda MX-5.
The contract mentions that both Mazda and Fiat will make “two distinctly styled, dynamic and customer-conscious roadsters featuring rear-wheel drive.”
Each of them will be powered by the custom made engines. The Alfa Romeo open-top two-seater sports car will be manufactured from 2015 onwards at Mazda’s plant located in Hiroshima, Japan.
The future concept of the MX-5 is expected to lose 220 lbs (100 kg) and could come with a 4-cylinder, 1.3-liter turbocharged engine producing about 200 hp (149 kW).
Nothing yet is known about the car features, performance and other details so one has to wait till it gets publicized.
No worries till then let us enjoy the picture gallery.
