Why No More Wankels?

Published: 11 February 2020


Mazda Man Paul talks with us about why the Wankel engine has fallen out of production in Mazda’s RX line. We get into the future of the Wankel in other applications. What does the Mazda Man drive, anyway? Cathy has left the building, but we still talk about autonomous car accidents. LEDs are annoying, but Mickey may still put one on the Honda. And speaking of lights, why do we see so many more people driving around with their lights off?

Published: 22 January 2020


Mickey and Ben has an opportunity to talk with Zack Miller, the Publisher of Motorbooks, producing some of the world’s finest books on transportation and motoring. Zack is a true gear-head who confesses a love for Italian motorcycles, but we were able to have a great conversation with him, anyway.
