“Driver and Roadster as One”
The exceptional soul of the Mazda MX-5
is described by the expression Jinba Ittai:
rider and horse as one. This concept of oneness of motion most
aptly depicts the relationship between the driver and a Mazda MX-5 roadster.
Mazda used the rider and horse idiom to create a car that would be universally
seen as “lots of fun”. Jinba Ittai is the essence of Zoom-Zoom, and it is what makes
the Mazda MX-5 so appealing to sports car enthusiasts.
The Mazda MX-5 demonstrates an ideal balance achieved with minimal
weight and propelled by a small but spirited engine. Every aspect of design, mechanical
function and dynamic response ultimately contribute to complete driving satisfaction.
The 6 major attributes considered to realize the Jinba Ittai concept:
- Styling (inside and outside)
- Touching (every aspect concerned with the tactile sense)
- Listening (dominated by the engine voice)
|
- Cornering (handling dynamics)
- Driving (from ride quality to acceleration response)
- Braking
