Vision X-Coupe: Mazdas 503-HP Rotary Hybrid That Might Never Reach the Road
Vision X-Coupe is Mazda's four-door, coupe-inspired concept that pairs dramatic styling with surprising power. Under the hood sits a turbocharged two-rotor rotary engine paired with a plug-in hybrid system Mazda says makes 503 horsepower. Because it's a concept, the car can theoretically run on electric power alone, but a production version is far from guaranteed.
Design Preview: A Four-Door with Coupe-Like Stance and a Minimalist Interior
From the available photos, the X-Coupe wears a four-door silhouette with a coupe-like roofline, and, from some angles, its slim headlights divide opinion. Inside, the cabin looks simple yet refined: retro-style gauges and a round shift knob give it a tactile, old-school charm. Even as a concept, its design language hints at Mazda's future direction —style married to everyday usability.
Power, Range, and Reality: The Rotary Hybrid's Numbers and the Production Question
Power comes from a turbocharged two-rotor rotary engine paired with a plug-in hybrid drivetrain delivering 503 horsepower. Range figures show about 99 miles of electric range in European testing; in U.S. EPA testing, expect roughly 805 miles. Mazda closes with aspirational language about the future: "Our vision is to give every driver the freedom to explore the world, and to enjoy life to the fullest with their vehicle. Mazda brings this idea into the future, to 2035 and beyond, with the Mazda Vision X-Coupe."
