Thinking of buying the 2022 Mazda MX-5?

We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2022 Mazda MX-5 for sale by us right now. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Buying the 2022 Mazda MX-5 is a big decision; here is the information we have.

What to check on the MX-5

Owners filed 5 complaints with NHTSA, most often about power train, electrical system and forward collision avoidance; have those parts checked. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. There are 1 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done.

Reading the spec sheet

Power comes from the 2.0L 4-cylinder, driving through a 6-speed automatic. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.

By the EPA's combined rating of 7.9 L/100 km, 300 km takes about 24 litres. For 1,000 km, budget about $138.30 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,750 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

Who it is for

It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.

Space, size and seats

Low and compact, it is a car for the drive more than the cargo.

Drive it on your own roads

Try the MX-5 on your commute, then decide. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. A week with the MX-5 answers more than any brochure.

Year and trim

Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Within the 2022 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.

Running costs

At our price setting, 100 km costs about $13.83 in fuel. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
