Seems to me that this car, could very likely have a rotary powerplant as an option (or primary powerplant)...the rotor shape on the hood (just like an rx-8 and the rotor shapes in the wheels...) and...maybe its just me, but kinda sounded like a rotary burble in that last vid... Its gonna be Mazda's flagship...so its GOTTA be rotary right?!?!

Saw a few articles last year about it. It is curious that it has a rotor shaped impression on the hood (like an RX-8). The interior also has a vehicle telemetry display, in which the engine/trans look like a Renesis, and sit low in the chassis behind the front wheels.

Hints? Only Mazda knows.

Seeing that it's a four door, it could be a nice car for my wife.
