Mazda N platform
The Mazda N platform is an automobile platform for FMR layout sports cars. It has been the basis for four generations of the Mazda MX-5, as well as the 2016 Fiat 124 Spider.
NA
The NA utilized many components in-house, such as the 323/Familia/Protegé engine and 323 GTX differential (1.6L), RX-7 FC (non-turbo) differential (1.8L) and transmission, but the chassis was unique.
- 1989–1997 Mazda MX-5/Miata/Eunos Roadster (convertible)
NB
The NB was very close to the NA mechanically. Most changes were related to the vehicle systems, including electrical wiring and a new generation of the Mazda B engine.
- 1998–2005 Mazda MX-5/Miata/Roadster (convertible)
NC
The NC utilized a shortened version of the SE platform used by the RX-8. Many suspension and braking components are interchangeable with the RX-8, while some interior components are shared with the Mazda6, Mazda3, and CX-7.
