2025 MAZDA MX-5 Miata Engine Specs

We begin our dive into the 2025 Mazda MX-5 Miata specs with a look at the engine that enables them. The Mazda MX-5 Miata engine is the SKYACTIV®-G3 2.0 DOHC 16-valve 4-cylinder with VVT, and it comes paired with a standard SKYACTIV®-MT 6-speed manual transmission with short-throw shifter. A six-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters is available on the Mazda MX-5 Miata Grand Touring trim, but old-school enthusiasts will likely forgo the Mazda MX-5 Miata automatic option in favor of the classic manual. Check out basic engine specs below, including the Mazda MX-5 Miata horsepower output and EPA-estimated mpg figures:

If you’re surprised by how fuel-efficient the 2025 Mazda MX-5 Miata is despite its high octane requirement and sports car image, don’t be! Thanks to its extremely light curb weight (the Mazda MX-5 Miata has a curb weight of 2,366 pounds with manual transmission; the Mazda MX-5 Miata automatic is a little heavier), its 11.89-gallon fuel tank ensures plenty of driving time on winding Warner Robins roads.
