Improving on 1992′s Model: The 1993 RX-7 Revisited

There's been a lot of talk about the Mazda RX-7 for 1993. As a leading car in the coupe market the RX-7 (and in this case specically the Touring version) has maintained a high standard. The 2-door RX-7 is especially appealing to broad audience, making it a perfect car to help Mazda as a brand in general.

Stop and Go

Mazda RX-7 Engine Specs: The RX-7 Touring comes outfitted with a 1.3 liter, 2-cylinder motor that uses 12 valves. The engine, manufactured by Mazda, is mated to a four-speed transmission by Jatco. This arrangement has demonstrated to be an effective style for Mazda.

The RX-7 uses power-assisted brakes, with 4-Wheel ABS support. The front brakes are disc while the rear brakes are disc. Steering is handled through a power-steering rack-style configuration. The car uses coil and coil springs front and rear respectively.

Statistics

The RX-7 is 168.50 inches long, 68.90 inches wide, and 48.40 inches high. It has a wheelbase of 95.50 inches. It is able to seat 2 comfortably.

The original manufacturer suggested retail price (MSRP) was $32,900 when new, with a dealer invoice cost of an industry-high price. This price was in line with the industry average price for a 2-door Coupe.

Fuel Efficiency

The 1993 RX-7's standard fuel system runs on gas. The fuel is regulated electronically, with a fuel-injected MFI style of design. The fuel capacity of the car is 20.10 gallons.

The 1993 RX-7 gets 24 - 25 miles/gallon on the highway and only 17 - 18 in the city. This is below average for a coupe car.

Parting Shots

The 1992 model began the promise of the Mazda RX-7. The 1993 expanded on this success and has proven to be a strong seller in most markets. Even with strong competition from other manufacturers Mazda hopes that the RX-7 Touring will continue to be a profitable vehicle.
