Enjoy all the pics here, lads. It's a damn good looking concept. If it translate as well to a production vehicle as the rest of the SkyActiv cars, it will be amazing (that's if it goes into production).

Schwing!
Definitely won't be a production model, but I can envision what it might be like.
Love the grill, reminds me of a Jaguar.

If the tires are staggered now, they will likely be staggered if it ever becomes a production car.
The whole idea that Mazda would even consider staggered sizes is very disappointing.
The only reason for staggered sizes is an unbalanced car.
If I want that I can just go get a Camaro tomorrow.

It's a style concept, any powertrain in it would be whatever they had on hand to make it move around without them pushing it. It's possible it doesn't even have a drivetrain.
It's literally to gauge feedback on the looks. Nothing more.
The ND Miata didn't have engine info released until a few months before it went on sale, expect the same here, so wait 2-3 years (or more) to get that answer.

it's for show; it's what the 'kids' like these days.
c'mon, you really think mazda is putting 20's on a rotary sports car?
I would expect something in the 255-265 range all the way around when it's released. When, not if.

40th anniversary Edition
Mazda Reveals Mazda RX-VISION Concept
Powered by next-generation rotary engine SKYACTIV-R, represents Mazda’s vision of the future
HIROSHIMA, Japan—Mazda Motor Corporation unveiled the rotary-powered Mazda RX-VISION sports car concept at the Tokyo Motor Show*1 today. The rotary engine is a symbol of the company’s “never-stop-challenging” spirit.
RX-VISION represents a vision of the future that Mazda hopes to one day make into reality; a front-engine, rear-wheel drive sports car with exquisite, KODO design-based proportions only Mazda could envision, and powered by the next-generation SKYACTIV-R rotary engine.
Rotary engines feature a unique construction, generating power through the rotational motion of a triangular rotor. Overcoming numerous technical difficulties, Mazda succeeded in commercializing the rotary engine, fitting it in the Cosmo Sport (known as Mazda 110S overseas) in 1967. As the only automaker to mass-produce the rotary engine, Mazda continued efforts to improve power output, fuel economy and durability, and in 1991 took overall victory at 24 Hours of Le Mans with a rotary engine-powered race car. Over the years, the rotary engine has come to symbolize Mazda’s creativity and tireless endeavor in the face of difficult challenges.
While mass production is currently on hold, Mazda has never stopped research and development efforts towards the rotary engine. The next rotary engine has been named SKYACTIV-R, expressing the company’s determination to take on challenges with convention-defying aspirations and the latest technology, just as it did when developing SKAYCTIV TECHNOLOGY.
“I look forward to talking with you more about this vision we have revealed here today at the Mazda stand,” said Mazda’s Representative Director, President and CEO, Masamichi Kogai. “Mazda will continue to take on new challenges in an effort to build a special bond with our customers and become their ‘one and only’ brand.”
