Additionally, eight separate parking sensors detect front and rear proximity to obstacles and sound an alarm if the car is getting too close to obstacles.

The feeling you get on the open road in a lightweight roadster is unmatched. To build upon that feeling, Mazda’s engineers have enriched the 2019 MX-5 Miata’s SKYACTIV-G 2.0-liter engine to boast 17 percent more power and greater fuel-efficiency than last year’s model. As a result of numerous changes, MX-5 is quicker, more responsive and aims to be more engaging to drive, adhering to Mazda’s Jinba Ittai—“horse and rider as one”—engineering philosophy. The 2019 MX-5 Miata is currently on sale with a starting MSRP of $25,730. Beyond engine improvements, the 2019 MX-5 introduces many other updates: • Available brown soft top for MX-5 Grand Touring models • New, standard tilt/telescoping steering column with 30mm of telescoping and 42mm of tilt range • New aluminum steering column to save weight versus the previous steel unit • New standard rearview camera • New, available package options at each trim level • Available Traffic Sign Recognition • Available Smart City Brake Support low-speed automatic emergency braking MX-5 Sport continues to serve as the entry point into the MX-5 family, offered exclusively with a black soft top. Standard features include LED headlights and tail lights; 16-inch alloy wheels; cloth seats; dual power side mirrors; power windows; a 6-speaker audio system, including headrest speakers; Bluetooth phone pairing and audio streaming; two USB audio inputs; MAZDA CONNECTTM infotainment with a 7-inch monitor that features both touchscreen and Commander control functions; a leather-wrapped steering wheel, parking brake and shifter knob; steering-wheel-mounted audio controls; and Mazda Advanced Keyless Entry. For 2019, MX-5 Sport can be supplemented with the i-ACTIVSENSE Sport Package that adds low-speed Smart City Brake Support automatic emergency braking, Lane-Departure Warning and Blind Spot Monitoring with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert. Building upon MX-5 Sport continues to be the more luxurious MX-5 Grand Touring and harder-edged MX-5 Club models. Both are offered as soft tops as well as in MX-5 RF—retractable fastback—configurations. MX-5 Grand Touring upgrades from the base MX-5 Sport with 17-inch dark silver wheels; body-color interior trim; auto on/off headlights; an auto-dimming driver’s side mirror; rain-sensing windshield wipers; automatic climate control; auto-dimming rearview mirror with Homelink®; heated, leather-trimmed seats; a 9-speaker BOSE®Premium audio system; a fabric-lined soft top for greater sound insulation; Sirius XM Satellite radio with a 4-month trial subscription, Mazda Navigation; Blind Spot Monitoring with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert; new Traffic Sign Recognition; Adaptive Front-lighting System; High Beam Control; Lane-Departure Warning; and Smart City Brake Support. Listening to customers’ demands, Mazda will offer a new GT-S Package for MX-5 Grand Touring models equipped with the SKYACTIV-MT 6-speed manual transmission, equipping those models with a front shock tower brace, limited-slip rear differential and Bilstein dampers. MX-5 Club models continue the two-pronged, higher-trim strategy, offering a harder-edged foil to the MX-5 Grand Touring. MX-5 Club builds upon MX-5 Sport with standard Bilstein dampers, shock tower brace and limited-slip rear differential in models equipped with the SKYACTIV-MT transmission. All other MX-5 Club models receive standard heated cloth seats with red contrast stitching, body-color interior trim; Metallic Black alloy 17-inch wheels, front air dam and rear lip spoilers, a 9-speaker BOSE®Premium audio system, SiriusXM Satellite Radio with a 4-month trial subscription and Blind Spot Monitoring with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert. MX-5 Club models are available with an i-ACTIVSENSE Club Package that comes with Smart City Brake Support and Lane-Departure Warning. Additionally, MX-5 Club SKYACTIV-MT can be had with the Brembo/BBS Package and Brembo/BBS/Recaro Package. The Brembo/BBS Package include front Brembo rotors and calipers; red-painted brake calipers on all four corners; 17-inch, dark gunmetal BBS forged alloy wheels; functional side sill extensions; a rear bumper skirt; and heated leather-upholstered seats. The Brembo/BBS/Recaro Package, which returns for the soft top and is new for MX-5 RF, replaces the leather-trimmed seats with heated Recaro buckets. All 2019 MX-5s come standard in the U.S. with a SKYACTIV-G 2.0-liter engine, producing 181 horsepower at 7,000 rpm and 151 lb-ft of torque at 4,000 rpm. That represents an increase of 26 horsepower and 3 lb-ft of torque over the previous model. Thanks to a host of internal improvements, including lighter pistons and rods and a larger throttle, MX-5’s engine produces more torque throughout its rev range and enjoys a 700 rpm higher redline for the new model year. The new engine comes paired to either a standard SKYACTIV-MT 6-speed manual transmission or an available 6-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters and Sport mode.

With summer now behind us, the natural inclination is to break those sweaters out of mothballs, get those fantasy leagues in order and start planning that oh-so-perfect Halloween costume. And if you’ve got an MX-5 Miata, perhaps you’re lamenting having to “batten down the hatches” until spring. The good news is that fall, in much of the United States, is an exceptional time to keep the top down for a little while longer — depending on your proximity to the Sun Belt. Here are our top “topless” destinations within the lower 48: 1. New England There are plenty of mini heat waves that roll through southern New England well into November. Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Vermont all can see temperatures reach the low 80s for up to a week at a time in the fall, making it the perfect time to put your shades back on, drop your top and take in the stunning fall foliage. Whether spending a quaint weekend at a Vermont bed-and-breakfast, apple picking in New Hampshire or taking a drive out to Cape Cod for authentic New England clam chowder, New England can provide the perfect backdrop to your topless weekend. 2. Miami The ultimate no-brainer. Aside from the usual south Florida showers that can come any time of year, the weather in fall is noticeably more tolerable than the intense humidity of summer. The beaches are still buzzing and the nightlife never stops. Whether sticking strictly to the world-class people watching of South Beach, or exploring the cuisine and ambience of older neighborhoods like Little Havana and Little Haiti, Miami remains one of the most international cities in the southern United States. If you’re feeling like letting your hair down, take the stunning drive to Key West on the Intercoastal Waterway and visit the house where Hemingway produced some of his greatest works. 3. The Blue Ridge Parkway Unfurling over 469 miles between Virginia and North Carolina, the Blue Ridge Parkway has long been featured as an “All American Road” for its stunning vistas high above the Smoky Mountains. In fall, when the leaves are turning, the Smokey Mountains become an explosion of colors that stretches as far as the eye can see. Cell phone service at points of the drive is non-existent, so fair warning if you’re someone who can’t bear to be unreachable. However if you’re looking for a leisurely, world-class drive, the Blue Ridge Parkway is well worth your time. 4. Texas Hill Country Texas isn’t usually thought of as a destination for fall foliage but the Hill Country surrounding Austin is positively bursting with colors. The legendary big maples in the Lost Maples State Natural Area and the lofty cottonwoods in the Caprock Canyons and Palo Duro Canyon provide unique colorations not found in traditional northern climes. For night life, Sixth Street in downtown Austin offers numerous restaurants and clubs with authentic Texas barbecue, as well as world-class music any night. If you’re a football fan the University of Texas Longhorns play every other weekend on the campus. 5. Arizona When fall rolls in and the oppressive summer heat starts to fade, it’s time to take that trip to the Grand Canyon you’ve always promised yourself you would. As the days shorten and the sun begins to set lower in the sky, the colors late in the afternoon and into sunset take on shades and hues that aren’t present in the summer months. And if you love golf, there are more than 300 courses in the state, so you’re never far from a round where jackets aren’t needed.

Further honing the thrill of each drive, the Mazda MX-5 RF features a hardtop that opens and closes in just 13 seconds with a simple press of a switch. New for 2019, the SKYACTIV-G 2.0-liter engine receives a power increase of 26 horsepower and 3 lb-ft of torque, while increasing the redline from 6,800 rpm to 7,500 rpm compared to last year’s model. Seen as the more sophisticated take on the MX-5 soft top, MX-5 RF includes a 4.6-inch, full-color TFT display, which now adopts the available Traffic Sign Recognition. Additional features include a tilt and telescoping steering column, Smart City Brake Support, standard rearview camera and two new package options.

Adhering to Mazda’s human-centric design and engineering philosophy, Mazda took its outstanding driving dynamics and design to the next level in the 2018 Mazda6. Engineers and designers focused on refinement and technology to better offer an experience far exceeding expectations. With that in mind, here are six ways that the 2018 Mazda6 matured, further strengthening the bond between automobile and driver: 1. When Mazda uses human-centric engineering, it means that the vehicle experience starts with the driver. From the shape of the seat to the chassis design and suspension tuning, the entire Mazda6 is designed to work in harmony with the driver. The driving position in the Mazda6 enhances situational awareness by putting the driver in a subconsciously symmetrical position. This relaxed and alert position enables smooth and natural car control. Its re-engineered SKYACTIV-CHASSIS complements a newly upgraded suspension to provide a smooth ride and improved handling. 2. For the first time, the 2018 Mazda6 is offered with a turbocharged SKYACTIV-G 2.5T engine. Mazda’s industry-first Dynamic Pressure Turbo virtually eliminates turbo lag that one might experience in competing vehicles. Mazda engineers used a butterfly valve to increase the velocity of exhaust gases powering the Mazda6’s turbocharger. As a result, the new Mazda6 delivers sharply responsive performance, with 310 pound-feet of torque available as low as 2,000 RPM. 3. Form follows function, but that doesn’t mean a car should be boring. Keeping the driver foremost in mind, Mazda’s designers moved the windshield back and raised the front fenders of the 2018 Mazda6 to provide the driver a clear sense of the car’s dimensions for maximum confidence in any driving scenario. The flowing and athletic KODO—Soul of Motion design language is not only sinuously beautiful, but it helps provide an accurate sense of speed and road position, enabling precision in driving. 4. In the 2018 Mazda6, all the technology is oriented toward the driver, with the major display placed in the driver’s natural field of vision to maintain eyes on the road. It’s high on the dashboard for easy sight at a glance rather than down where the driver might have to take his or her eyes off the road. The Mazda6 is available with a seven-inch digital gauge display for the driver in addition to a standard eight-inch MAZDA CONNECTTM infotainment system. Also available is Mazda’s Active Driving Display, which projects critical information right onto the windshield. The intent of every feature in the new Mazda6 is to create an environment conducive to effortless awareness and engagement with the act of driving. 5. Some improvements manifest themselves in what doesn’t happen. Thanks to the Mazda-exclusive G-Vectoring Control (GVC) technology, the Mazda6 offers more responsive and communicative steering without any unwanted, subconscious steering wheel nudges that can become tiresome on long drives. GVC uses engine timing to reduce torque very slightly when the driver turns the wheel. The effect is not perceptible to the driver or passengers, but the car’s weight shifts forward onto the front tires, leading to smoother, more accurate steering. With more confident responses, it’s as though the Mazda6 functions as an extension of the driver’s mind and body. That connected feeling is what Mazda calls “Jinba Ittai.” 6. Road noise can lead to driver fatigue, and the low-frequency rumble from rough modern roads can be especially wearing. Mazda has gone above and beyond to mitigate low frequency noise in the 2018 Mazda6 with additional sound-deadening insulation throughout the vehicle, as well as changes to the suspension mounts, added chassis bracing, and thicker sheet metal in critical locations to damp out low-frequency sounds. As an automaker devoted to making the driving experience as enriching as it is energizing, Mazda continues to improve every facet of the 2018 Mazda6 with the goal of putting the driver and driving experience first. From premium features with added technology to added refinement and a heightened driving experience, the 2018 Mazda6 is an embodiment of Mazda’s commitment to celebrate driving. It’s a car that fully delivers a Mazda Premium experience for drivers and passengers, alike.
