View specifications ↓Mazda Roadster RF: rigid roof and S/VS/RS grades
The Mazda Roadster RF is a separate fourth-generation body with a rigid folding Retractable Fastback roof; Japanese sales began in late 2016. The roof folds in 12 seconds at speeds up to 10 km/h. RF 2.0 S and RF 2.0 RS from December 2016 to November 2017 use a 158 PS SKYACTIV-G 2.0 engine. S offers six-speed manual and automatic transmissions, while RS uses a six-speed manual.
S is the base RF grade, VS adds Nappa leather, and RS has Bilstein dampers and Recaro seats. RF 2.0 S and RF 2.0 RS grades are two-seat, rear-wheel-drive cars with a 2,310 mm wheelbase, 145 mm of clearance and 205/45R17 wheels. Confirm the year, gearbox and equipment package because the RF name alone does not define the same equipment.
