Mazda is a stubborn brand.
This stubbornness, especially reflected in the rotor engine, may be because Mazda relied on the rotor engine on the track, or perhaps because the rotor engine has long flowed in Mazda's blood, has long become the soul of Mazda in everyone's eyes. Recently, Mazda has brought us the news of rotor engines.
It is reported that Mazda applied for a hybrid technology patent with a rotor engine, and Mazda's estimates know that the rotor engine is unlikely to appear alone, and it is also a "borrowed power resurrection" to be revived, so the rotor engine fans can sit down, to experience the pure rotor model, or look at the second-hand car.
It is worth mentioning that the new patent of Mazda this time involves a three-rotor engine and a rear drive, so it can be speculated that if this power system is mass-produced, it will be used in Mazda's high-end models, of course, these seem to be far away, after all, mass production is a difficult step that needs to be taken, and it remains to be seen how the power system with a rotor engine performs.
In fact, as early as 2020, the news of the rotor engine as a range extender spread like wildfire, when there was news that Mazda MX-30 would introduce a rotor engine as a range extender on the basis of pure electricity, thereby improving the overall endurance of the vehicle. Range extender models are estimated to have also been heard, the ideal ONE is a representative model, in this type of model, the engine is not used to directly drive the vehicle, which may be a kind of destination for the rotor engine.
Rotor engine resurrection, in fact, more like a kind of fuel car enthusiasts expectations, because we know that it is different, know that it has a unique charm, but we also have to understand that the environment is cruel, the future is environmental protection first, the rotor engine to resurrect, you have to compromise, and finally can only say, Mazda refueling.
