Driving a Mazda Miata is something everyone should experience at some point in their life. After all, it’s one of the best-selling two-seat sports convertibles ever. Here’s a look at the differences between the soft-top and retractable hardtop 2024 Mazda MX-5 Miata variants available at Green Mazda.
2024 MAZDA MX-5 Miata
The Mazda MX-5 Miata boasts a lightweight build and a finely tuned chassis. This combination creates an exhilarating driving experience. Beneath the hood lies an 181-horsepower 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine matched with a standard six-speed manual transmission.
As for its convertible options, drivers can choose either a manually or electrically operated soft-top or a retractable hardtop roof. The Mazda MX-5 Miata electrically operated soft-top roof lowers in seconds. The retractable roof of the Mazda MX-5 Miata can be effortlessly stowed with the push of a button.
One thing to note is that the added weight from the retractable hardtop results in a slight performance difference between the two. The soft-top model accelerates a bit quicker. Here’s a little more information about the non-RF model’s soft-top:
All About the MAZDA MX-5 Miata Soft-Top
The soft top is made of fabric and can be manually or electrically operated to lower or raise the roof. When the roof is lowered, it neatly stows behind the seats, exposing the cabin and passengers to the wind and sun of the open road.
