In a world of ever more complex performance cars, the refreshingly pure and elemental Mazda MX-5 Miata is proof that you don't need go-faster tech to have a great time. It isn't perfect and presents a number of glaring compromises when it comes to day-to-day usability, but that's not why you buy a Miata.

Overview
The Mazda MX-5 Miata is the poster child for automotive fun. Since its debut in 1989, this two-seat drop-top roadster has thrilled drivers with its inspiring agility. The current fourth-generation Miata has been in production since 2016, and while spy shots suggest Mazda has something up its sleeve for the future, the 2024 is not a major redesign.
Cost to DriveCost to drive estimates for the 2024 Mazda MX-5 Miata Sport 2dr Convertible (2.0L 4cyl 6M) and comparison vehicles are based on 15,000 miles per year (with a mix of 55% city and 45% highway driving) and energy estimates of $4.45 per gallon for premium unleaded in Ohio.

That doesn't mean Mazda has left the Miata untouched. Rather it receives multiple updates to keep it fresh. Dynamic changes include a new steering system, including a new steering rack that's designed to improve on-center feel at highway speeds and improved precision when cornering. Club and Grand Touring trims get a revised limited-slip differential that Mazda says helps improve stability when accelerating and decelerating. There's also a new Track mode for the stability control system. Intended for closed-circuit driving (think racetracks), Track mode allows a higher threshold of wheelslip before stepping in.
Inside the 2024 Miata is a bigger 8.8-inch touchscreen infotainment system and a new instrument cluster with easier-to-read graphics. The center console is now padded to be more comfortable, and the Miata also integrates Amazon Alexa for vehicle commands, or for home commands if you have integrated smart-home features.
It all sounds good to us, and we like Mazda's "if it ain't broke don't fix it" approach to updates. Check out our Expert Rating to see why we think the Miata is one of the most enjoyable sports cars you can get at any price.
What's it like to live with?
As one of the most entertaining vehicles you can buy, you better believe we've added a Mazda MX-5 Miata to the Edmunds long-term test fleet. In fact, we've added five of them over the years, including a 2016 Miata and the more powerful 2019 model from the current generation. These extended tests give us a more complete ownership experience over the course of a year, and in the case of the Miata, it only served to deepen our affection for this pint-size drop-top.

Rated for you by America's best test team.Performance
9.0/10
How does the MX-5 Miata drive? Mazda's latest upgrade to the Miata is what it calls Kinematic Posture Control. It's a brake-based torque vectoring system that Mazda says should help the car turn in during harder driving, but the new system didn't make much of an impression during our time with the venerable roadster. We could feel the system working (and we could smell the brakes after a hard session on our test track), but it didn't make too much of a difference.
Even so, the Miata is a light, nimble, precise and easy-to-drive sports car even when you're pushing its limits. At our test track, our manual-equipped Miata accelerated from 0 to 60 mph in 6.4 seconds. That's respectable but a bit off the pace of the Subaru BRZ (6.1 seconds) or a hot hatch such as the VW Golf GTI. Braking performance is solid, and we measured a stop from 60 mph in just 113 feet.

Comfort
7.5/10
How comfortable is the MX-5 Miata? Small two-seat roadsters aren't known for comfort, but the Miata is surprisingly livable in the day-to-day grind. You'll notice big lumps and bumps in the road as the Miata tends to crash over pavement that's in poor shape, but smaller imperfections are much more muted. For many on our staff, the Miata seats are one of the high points of the interior — they're supportive and comfortable — and the seat heaters do a great job of warming you up during chilly excursions. That said, a few editors found the seats to be a bit oddly padded and bolstered in odd places.
One unfortunate reality of the Miata — you'll be shocked to read this, we know! — is its exceptional amount of wind noise. The cabin can be a truly uncomfortable place to be with the top up on the highway. Shouting is occasionally required to speak with passengers. An alternate solution is to drive with the top down and the windows up while you enjoy the Miata's unlimited headroom. It's going to be a bit noisy anyway.

Interior
7.0/10
How’s the interior? The cabin's elegant design makes the most of the tidy space and prioritizes the fun of driving. Most of the controls are easy to reach given the small cabin. The infotainment system's control knob is awkwardly placed, but redundant touchscreen controls make it less of an issue. The cupholders, too, are awkwardly placed and make getting drinks extremely cumbersome.
Drivers over 6 feet tall will notice the lack of head- and legroom. Also, the passenger footwell is shorter than the driver's and taller co-pilots won't be able to fully extend their legs regardless of how far back they push the seats. The lack of space is this interior's only real downfall, though not a particularly surprising one.
One of the very best things about a soft-top Miata is just how quickly you can retract and extend the top. It's a manual top, so there's no power operation, but it's quite easy to do.

Technology
8.0/10
How’s the tech? A Miata must balance driving purity with a driver's desire for modern connectivity and safety tech. Two USB ports are standard, as is Android Auto and Apple CarPlay smartphone integration. There's also an impressive list of driver assist features — the blind-spot warning system is particularly useful should you opt to have the top up.
The nine-speaker Bose audio system does a good job of both filling the cabin with sound and competing with ambient noise. Voice controls are limited and stick to a menu of on-screen prompts, but the system recognizes speech well. The available navigation works fine enough but is fairly basic in scope and design.

Storage
5.5/10
How’s the storage? No one should expect a two-seat convertible to be a utilitarian machine, so the Miata's lack of carrying capacity shouldn't come as a surprise. The Miata's trunk measures just 4.6 cubic feet, which means it won't be suitable for longer trips that require more than one piece of luggage per passenger. The space is tall enough for carry-on luggage or a few tall grocery bags. But unlike larger convertibles, there's no back seat to use as a cargo shelf. There's not even a glovebox. Instead, the Miata just has a small bin between the seats that serves as the main storage area for things such as smartphones, wallets or small handbags.
There is sufficient room for one child or toddler in a forward-facing seat or booster only. There are no car seat anchors or top-tether attachment points.

Fuel Economy
9.5/10
How’s the fuel economy? EPA-estimated fuel economy for the Miata with the six-speed manual is 29 mpg combined (26 city/34 highway). During our two weeks with the Miata, we regularly saw 27 mpg on a mix of both city streets and highways, but we may have been a little overzealous with the go pedal. In other tests, Miatas have regularly exceeded their fuel economy estimates.
Value
8.5/10
Is the MX-5 Miata a good value? Despite being small, the Miata isn't flimsy. It's built well and every thing has a solid feel to it, though the gear lever in our test vehicle constantly rattled around inside the gate. Typical of Mazdas these days, an abundance of soft plastics and synthetic leather coverings give the interior an upscale feel. While the price can creep in upper trims and with option packages, the Miata is a good value overall.
Mazda's bumper-to-bumper warranty is good for three years/36,000 miles, while the powertrain is covered for five years/60,000 miles. These are average for the segment. Roadside assistance is offered for three years/36,000 miles, which is below average among non-luxury convertibles.

Wildcard
9.5/10
The Miata is truly in a class of its own. There is not another rear-wheel-drive convertible that delivers the same thrills at the same price. It's both entertaining and compliant, and it does this with a certain purity missing from more modern, tech-advanced cars. After so long, the Miata, for many, is still the answer. And it's the right one.
Which MX-5 Miata does Edmunds recommend?
With all the changes to the 2024 Miata, one thing that hasn't changed is our recommendation for the Club trim. It has improved handling and traction from the sport-tuned Bilstein suspension and limited-slip differential, as well as a few niceties such as heated seats and a Bose premium audio system.
Mazda MX-5 Miata models
The 2024 Mazda MX-5 Miata is a small two-seat convertible available in three trim levels: Sport, Club and Grand Touring. Each one is powered by a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine (181 horsepower, 151 lb-ft of torque) driving the rear wheels through a standard six-speed manual transmission. A six-speed automatic is optional with the Grand Touring trim. Note that there's also the Miata RF, which has a retractable hardtop and is reviewed separately. Standard feature highlights for the Miata include:
Sport
The base MX-5 Miata Sport is equipped with:
- 16-inch black alloy wheels with high-performance tires
- LED headlights and taillights
- Black manual convertible top
- Keyless entry and push-button engine start

Club
The Club is the sportiest Miata, adding:

Grand Touring
The Grand Touring is the most luxurious MX-5. It builds off the Club (minus the front and rear spoilers) and adds:
- 17-inch metallic black alloy wheels
- Automatic headlights with automatic high-beam assist
- Adaptive headlights (swivel as you turn the steering wheel for better illumination in curves)
- Automatic rain-sensing windshield wipers
- Heated side mirrors with auto-dimming driver's side glass
- Auto-dimming rearview mirror
- Automatic climate control

The sport-tuned suspension with Bilstein shock absorbers, limited-slip differential and shock tower brace aren't available with the optional automatic transmission.

Best Miata Yet!
5 out of 5 starsDr. Roger Tilton, 05/17/2021
2021 Mazda MX-5 Miata Grand Touring 2dr Convertible (2.0L 4cyl 6M)
I just recently bought a new Miata grand touring manual shift. I should mention that I have driven only Miatas since they first came out in 1989, and this will be my sixth. My first very pleasant surprise was the appearance. I wanted the Soul Red Crystal but based on the pictures on the dealer's website it didn't look too good with the gray top which is all that any of the dealers had in … the grand touring. I went to test drive one, and when I saw the red with the gray top in person I almost fainted. The color combination looked just fantastic in person and nothing like the picture. My car until then was a 2016 soul red special edition with the tan interior which looked great, but this looked even better. The red is deeper and more beautiful than before which I didn't think was possible. In fact I think this is the most beautiful red I have ever seen in a car including Ferraris and Corvettes, and other people tell me that when they see my car. (I got the first compliment on the color on the test drive from another driver at a stoplight who said he loved the color.) I tell people it looks like a $100,000 car, but I honestly can't think of a $100,000 car that looks this beautiful. With the gray top it adds a sense of elegance.
I had been a little concerned, because this car has a sports suspension which now comes with the grand touring manual, since I have always had the regular suspension desiring a smoother ride. However with the sports suspension it is just fine and in fact better overall. It felt a little bit rougher on a not so smooth road during my test drive, but then I decided I had better check the tire pressure. Mazda recommends 29 psi which is inside the driver's side door. Sure enough the dealer had 50 psi in all four tires which I then corrected. I have had the car for a week now and have driven 500 miles. All I can say is that as much as I loved my 2016 Miata this one is better in every way. The added horsepower added in 2019 is very noticeable and just puts the driving experience on a higher level. And on a decent road the ride quality is better than ever. It is even smoother than my 2016, and there's something about the overall feel of the car on the road that is just sensational. You feel this on the freeway at high speeds but even at just about any speed unless it's a really rough road. It's 0-60 time of 5.7 and it's quarter mile time of 14.4 is comparable to the former Honda S2000 and to the 2013 Porsche Boxster which were formidable cars. I used to love the Boxster, but I test drove one a couple of years ago and in the manual shift I was really disappointed. You almost couldn't drive it normally in the city, because you would be going 70 mph in second gear. I like the Miata better which is more like the Boxster use to be. When I say everything is better with this Miata than my 2016 that includes the clutch which is even easier than before and something, about the integration of the manual shifter and the clutch which seems even more seamless. With all of my Miatas I always thought they couldn't be improved upon, but each one is noticeably better than the one before. However this ND2 is really something else. The subjective enjoyment factor in driving this car is really off the charts. If you watch some of the current YouTube reviews with young guys who say they had never driven a Miata and had some negative preconceived ideas about it, they are noticeably blown away when they are test driving it. It's also nice to have the Apple Car Play which can be connected wirelessly on the grand touring, and the black leather with white stitching looks really nice. This Miata is the best ever and is truly a remarkable car. Given the looks, performance, and overall driving enjoyment there really is no car I would rather have.

2019 Mazda MX-5 Miata Sport 2dr Convertible (2.0L 4cyl 6M)
This is the first car that I look forward to driving every day. The small size makes it very agile and the car feels like an extension of the driver, and it's easy to ignore the compromises made. With the top down, visibility is great and the wind creates of a feeling of speed, even when driving moderately fast. With the top up the car feels cozy, but rear and side visibility are … very limited and the noise from the soft top is excessive at highway speeds. The addition of aftermarket wide-angle side mirrors, noise cancellation earbuds and a clear wind deflector (why not include it upfront?) helped. Acceleration is good with room for improvement. Fuel economy averages about 29 mpg although savings are negated by the requirement for premium gas. The ride on my Sport trim is sporty but not hard, so I am glad I didn't go for the stiffer suspension of the club. Body roll is acceptable when the electronic control is activated. The cloth seats were quite comfortable but retained moisture so I had them upholstered with marine leather - a must in a convertible. Mazda apparently also decided to punish buyers of the Sport by saving a couple of dollars on a padded armrest, but that wasn't enough for me to upgrade to the Club. I did pay $450 to get an Android Auto but ultimately found that I didn't really use it. Gear shifting is good. The entertainment system is sub-par and the speakers failed after 3 years, the first car that I have that happen. On removal, they were $5 paper speakers, so shame on Mazda for installing garbage in a $30K car. My AC had a leak that took 3 years and many trips to different dealerships to get diagnosed and fixed, and even without the leak it is pretty useless, making driving in the summer in Florida an ordeal. Overall, I am happy with the car and it remains by far my favorite vehicle but wish Mazda wasn't pennywise and cared a bit more about their drivers.
Most fun of any car ive ever been in.

2021 Mazda MX-5 Miata Grand Touring 2dr Convertible (2.0L 4cyl 6M)
Ive had a 2000 vette, two mini coopers (which I loved), multiple Chevy ford Lexus Nissan Mitsubishi land rover Honda Toyota cars and trucks (I'm old!) and this is the most fun of any car ive ever had. Its my daily driver. The handling is phenomenal. Its sweet spot is 90-100mph but even at slower speeds its a blast. The cornering is fantastic. Its like driving a comfortable go cart daily! … Could it use a smoother ride and more storage ...yes but it would add weight and size and its perfect size now for anyone 6'2" and under (I'm 5'10"). 32 mpg and I drive it like I stole it! Had it 6 mos now. I suspect I will trade it in for every new major update until I die or until the other companies make something similar. Havent had a "stick" since my 20's but stick is the way to go here. Very easy to shift. Mark hoyle Dallas Texas.
Deja Vu Many Years Later

2022 Mazda MX-5 Miata Grand Touring 2dr Convertible (2.0L 4cyl 6M)
I just purchased a 2022 Grand Touring 6 speed manual in Soul Red. Many years ago, I went to buy a fully loaded Protege. they didn't have what I wanted and the salesman asked me if I wanted to have fun? I said yes and we took out a Miata. (1st gen.) Most fun I ever had buying a car until now. I went there looking at something totally different and ended up buying in right off the … showroom floor! The art of driving is can still be had with this amazing vehicle. It's been said a thousand times, the Miata is truly an extension of the driver. It makes you feel like a way better diver than you really are. (Not trying to offend any boy-racers out there.) You can handle any turn and twist the road ahead of you has to offer all while enjoying the elements. (Wind in your hair if I had any ;) Driving was starting to be a chore and now I look for excuses to go and don't even mind the "grind" that is my commute. You owe it to yourself to drive one and learn to drive a stick before it goes the way of the Dodo bird! Besides, it's the best theft prevention on the planet. The only this I'll say about the size is that I'm 5'5" and it fits like of glove. I'm also older and can still get in and out of it easily enough. Visibility is good and BSM picks up on anything you might miss. If you miss the art of diving as much I as apparently did, this is your ticket for the best time you can have behind the wheel of anything! You only get one trip around the block, have fun doing it!

Compare the Mazda MX-5 Miata
Mazda MX-5 Miata vs. Ford Mustang
The Mustang is redesigned for 2024, though in reality it's received more of a substantial update than a full redesign. It's nevertheless one of the few non-luxury convertibles remaining and can be just as fun as the Miata. The entry-level four-cylinder Mustang is more expensive but it's also more powerful. It delivers a different experience with the added weight, but it's also more practical with rear seats and a large trunk.
Mazda MX-5 Miata vs. Mini Convertible
It's unclear if the Mini Convertible will return for 2024 — some reports say it's been discontinued, while a Mini executive said a new one is in development. If it returns in its current form, expect a fun and sprightly runabout that is just as enjoyable as the Miata. The front-wheel-drive Mini has its own distinct, playful character but can tend to get rather pricey when you get into customization options.
Mazda MX-5 Miata vs. Toyota GR86
We've run out of convertible competitors to the Miata, so we're including the Toyota GR86 and nearly identical Subaru BRZ as suitable rivals. Sure, you won't get as even a tan as you would in a Miata, but these hardtop coupes are ridiculously fun to drive and, like the Miata, are priced to be accessible to even modest enthusiast budgets.
