Mazda RX-VISION Concepts

To the 50 engineers chipping away at the issues that the Rotary has (low torque, low fuel economy) with a small budget from Mazda I say:
MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU.......
50 engineers kept the rotary alive at Mazda for 8 years

Being from europe, I noticed that the Rx-8 is not as popular in Europe as it is in the other markets. But the other thing is car manufacturers get a higher margin per car sold in Europe than they do in the US. So while Mazda may not sell as many rx-8's in europe they might have a higher profit from those sold in europe than elsewhere.

The silence from me is because it's not very pretty to my eye (not a big deal as RX-EVOLV wasn't either), we have nearly zero information about the engine, and it is a long, long, long way from production.
I'm out of gas until they show the next iteration - or not - at a motor show a year or more from now.

Years of discussion about if there would even BE a concept, much less an actual production model.
Then a concept is finally announced resulting in 23 pages of discussion about anything imaginable about the imagining of a hypothetical concept.
I'm open to any original ideas, otherwise I'll wait for some new information.

Thanks for the awesome pictures, it is very much a future RX-7 concept.
Interesting read about the issues of lubrication and contact pressures of apex seals. They seem to be busy I found an interesting article about flame propagation in a RE published the same date.
