Mazda MX-5 wins Best Convertible at the 2016 What Car? Awards​

Mazda MX-5 was voted Best Convertible at the 2016 What Car? Awards. The model is available to test drive at any of our Johnsons Mazda dealerships. The customer can enjoy its lightweight design, sleek cabin and expertly engineered handling. Its fun to drive character has strengthened the bond between Mazda and its customers for 25 years. With prices starting from £18,495 OTR, 0-62mph as fast as 7.3 seconds, the latest in-car connectivity, and fuel economy up to 47.1mpg, the all-new Mazda MX-5 makes a great package for driving enthusiasts.

The What Car? test team said: “Sure, there are faster hot hatches with more power, but they don’t deliver the fresh-air frolics and sweetly balanced rear-wheel-drive handling of the Mazda. Everything about it feels ideally suited to the UK, from grip levels to the high-revving engine and diminutive proportions”.

The model is available in five trim levels, from the SE base model up to Sport Nav and options of either the 1.5-litre or 2.0-litre petrol engines with six-speed manual transmission. As standard, the cars come with alloy wheels, LED headlights, leather steering wheel and a lightweight fabric hood. All versions also come with Mazda’s integrated navigation system with three-years of free European map updates.
