    Mazda RX-8

    EPA MPG: 20 mpg

    RECALL ALERT:
    There are 5 recalls on this vehicle. Learn More.

    Road Test

    The RX-8 is a fun-to-drive sport coupe with a practical twist -- two small rear-hinged back doors. It has excellent road manners, delivering both agile handling and a very comfortable ride for a sports car. The transmission glides from gear to gear and the engine revs with equal smoothness, although fuel economy is unimpressive.
