A prominent coupe-like profile meets classic Miata curves in the 2013 power retractable hardtop MX-5. The redesigned grille and front fascia plus wide, sculpted fenders and smooth arching bodylines amplify the Miata’s athletic look while working together aerodynamically for less-turbulent, top-down exhilaration.
From the distinctive front fascia to high performance tires and dual exhaust outlets, the MX-5 boasts sporty design cues worthy of its prowess—and a few unexpected conveniences too.
Go from coupe to convertible within 12 seconds.* Never again must you choose between top-down thrills and the practicality and security of a hardtop; this one’s always with you and ready at the touch of a button. It’s aerodynamically designed to add little weight to the vehicle and, when lowered, collapses into its own compartment for a tight fit that doesn’t reduce your 5.3 cubic feet of trunk space.
Standard halogen headlights brightly illuminate the path ahead and last longer than traditional incandescent headlamps. Or choose the available Xenon headlights for an even brighter, whiter and broader light in all conditions. The low-set and stylishly bold clear-lens halogen fog lights—standard on all trims—project light beneath the fog layer to help increase visibility in inclement weather.
The MX-5 cockpit was designed for one purpose—to make you feel at one with machine. Custom fit control starts with a sporty, leather-wrapped steering wheel that provides a comfortable, confident grip. Strategically positioned pedals provide even faster heel-and-toe action for those hairpin turns while racing-inspired gauges help keep you in tune with the engine. Strap into the adjustable driver’s bucket seat designed meticulously to accommodate your specific driving position, or upgrade to heated leather-trimmed seats with five heat settings.

An exhilarating ride deserves an audio system to match. The standard 6-speaker MP3-compatible audio system is equipped with an auxiliary-audio input jack for mobile devices, speed-sensing audio volume control plus available SiriusXMTM Satellite Radio with a 4-month trial subscription to the Sirius Select Package. Grand Touring delivers crisp, immersive sound through a 7-speaker Bose audio system with AudioPilot® ambient noise compensation technology and a 6-disc in-dash CD changer.
Keeping your eyes on the road and hands on the wheel has never been easier. With the available Bluetooth®** hands-free system with voice command, making and receiving calls is as easy as pushing a button on the steering wheel and saying hello.
EXPLORE BLUETOOTHWith over 20 years of racing heritage, the MX-5 is the most-raced roadster and the official vehicle of the Skip Barber Driving Schools. Here’s the power behind the icon:
To transfer this force to the pavement, we gave Club and Grand Touring models a precise and ultra-responsive short-throw, close-ratio 6-speed manual gearbox. The available 6-speed sport automatic includes steering-wheel mounted paddle shifters for more control, transforming anticipation into exhilaration.

Lightweight construction and 50:50 front-to-rear weight distribution are only the beginning of MX-5’s superior handling.
Thanks to its lightweight body and efficient, friction-reducing engine, the MX-5 PRHT gets an EPA-estimated 21 miles per gallon in the city and an EPA-estimated 28 on the Highway‡ without compromising its trademark exhilarating performance.
Zero to 60 is nothing without 60 to zero.
All MX-5s are equipped with these standard safety features:
Safety is at the core of our engineering—and the Miata’s. Using the “gram strategy” and ultra-high-tensile steel, Mazda engineers made the MX-5 lightweight and perfectly balanced without reducing the strength and integrity of the body’s construction. All trims are equipped with advanced dual front airbags‡‡ with a passenger-side deactivation switch and dual side impact airbags.

The standard engine immobilizer anti-theft system helps protect your vehicle by requiring a properly coded key to start the engine. If a counterfeit key is used, the engine will not start. Available as an accessory or part of the Premium Package, the perimeter alarm system helps to deter potential damage or theft of your Miata while parked.
From classics to concepts and breakthrough innovations, Mazda has an impressive history with the automotive industry–and the MX-5 is no exception. See the MX-5 Miata's different variations over the years, starting with the first in 1989.
