Test Sürüşü: Umut Özgür Sunay

Mazda MX-5 Roadster tested this two-person car in the first days of January 2020. Mazda MX-5 sports car is a Roadster Japaon car consisting of two doors. When we first look at this car from the outside, we see that BMW Z4, Mercedes –benz SLK, Honda S200, Alfa Romeo Roadster, etc. However, this posture at the forefront of the front nose hood section of the Sky-Active G technology and design that really manages to reduce you into a misconception and a section of the powerful lines and design.

The front side is quite dislocated and characterized by a long hood nose structure, while a roadster with modern lines and lines that manages to make you feel that it is a complete sports car with its slanted headlights.

When we look at the vehicle from the side, we see that there is a seating cabin area and the rear baggage part of the vehicle. On the other hand, the length of the front of the vehicle is evident. It has switchless opening doors and luggage lock. Moreover, it is very simple to open the ceiling of the vehicle from the inside. When you sit in, you can open the upper lock with a single hand movement and push the upper ceiling awning backwards with your hand and press it to the lock area at the back. This is already up to 15 seconds. Even if you have taken the automatic ceiling of the vehicle, this is the time you will open the top of the vehicle.

When we look at the rear side of the vehicle, it has a structure and style with a narrower and shorter chassis. The rear luggage opens only with the help of the key. It has a deep chamber baggage with 2 sports bags. The exhaust output of the vehicle, which gives the sound of the magnificent predators, is quite simple and simple, but that sound heard from the inside is magnificent.

When we look into the vehicle and the first we sit in the normal classic Mazda 3 -sleeved sports steering and highly bony hard sport attracts a 6 -speed flat gear, while the middle console has a fixed 7 -inch touch screen. Although the normal indicator panels are very simple designed in the steering section of the vehicle, the speed indicator panel, which we are accustomed to a well -appealing structure, attracts attention with the design of the speed in the middle.

Another beautiful part of the vehicle is the design of the seats and seats. The seats and seat heads, which are made of very good quality leather material, are very ergonomic and relaxed in any case. In addition, the phone headset system, which works integrated into the seats, is very good. When you introduce your phone to the vehicle, you can reach all kinds of menu with the help of a round button in the lower part of the gear on the right side. In this case, I liked the person you are going to call with a phone kit system in the vehicle where you can hear the sound from the seat headings on the road. I was also able to look very comfortably with the help of the menu button using my phone messages. I love MX-5’s smartphone Android app.

Unfortunately, the opportunity to try it was unfortunately not available because it was offered in the optional option because the vehicle does not have navigation and the test tool. But I can say that the vehicle’s blind spot warning system works well. Both seats have a heating system. In the meantime, since the vehicle has a narrow and more mini living space, I could not see another vehicle that works so well. Even if you are with Short in the winter day, you will not get cold. You don’t even need to open the air conditioner. Because the whole temperature of the engine is constantly inside unless you close it.

Now let’s look at the driving of the vehicle now; The 1.5 -liter gasoline engine is also rejected for 8,000 rpm. After 6,000 rpm at high speeds, the vehicle’s predatory engine sound is too much, and there is a performance increase. Mazda MX-5, which has 1.5 liters of 130 horsepower, did not have a problem in a short time. If a power supplement is made to this vehicle a little more, this exhaust structure will be opened in fact, the vehicle will gain too much acceleration, which will actually reduce the vehicle to stop and be safe at the same time. For this reason, all the safety equipment of the vehicle considering the vehicle acceleration and also fuel economy in terms of providing a very good set of Japanese manufacturers.

According to the acceleration and serial use of the vehicle in any way, it is very interesting that the fuel economy is not affected by more than remarkable. If you used the vehicle in the series, this vehicle did not burn too much. The fact that the fuel tank and the chamber are full of full warehouses in a smaller and economical way encourages you to make you use it fast and serial. It is possible to choose to enjoy the vehicle to the fuel. MX-5 is a low-burning vehicle because of its sports cars and mini.

Now another important element is that the MX-5 will be the wonder of design. Why? When you ask, there is not much to say. You need to use and experience. However, the weight ratio and balance of the MX-5 is designed as a 50 percent front and rear, and the driver’s passenger seat was taken as a center of gravity. In addition, the dynamic traction control system in the vehicle ESP and EBD ESP: Electronic stability program is very good, EBD: ”Electronic Brake Distributor” If the brake is made in the front and rear axles in the balanced distribution of this vehicle, especially in a sports car as a Japanese engineering wonder of the vehicle in a very good way to remain in the bend.

Here, the right and left sharp bends I have entered strongly by protecting the line without encountering the slip by remaining in the bend and very well-holding structure with the MX-5 sports car made us the safety of the safety.

In this respect, when we look at the results of the MX-5 euroncap collision tests, we saw that the hard blows from the front of 60-65 km of speeds and the passengers inside are not exposed to much damage with the front Airbag explosion.

In this sense, the tires are very important for the braking on the vehicle. In this sense, winter tires Hankook brand with the test drive Mazda MX-5 rainy wet floors, especially the braking is not good, the distance was advanced. However, we do not based this braking distance because winter tires do not give good results in performance in rainy weather and wet floor conditions.

When we close the ESP system of the vehicle inside the button, there is a relief in the departure and departure of the vehicle, while all of your steering movements, the rear “ass” side of the vehicle by possible side by way and allows you to make easy dirift, offers a fun driving. It is a very successful usual in the MX-5 to do this with gas, including the 2nd and 3rd gears.

Finally, while watching 180 km on the highway, the sudden ABS braking test did not show the tendency to slide on the right and left on the flat road did not show that the ABS assistance in a short time was able to stop or slow down the vehicle.
