Honestly the power train is the #1 reason I dislike the Mazda. They tease bringing back rotary engines, only for them to be a gimmick. It doesn’t look awful, and does stay fairly true to Mazda styling. The back looks like a Ferrari, but overall it isn’t ugly.
I'm a big fan of series hybrids. PHEVs are great for alleviating range anxiety but parallel PHEVs can be sluggish if the battery is depleted. Building a sports car series hybrid seems like a great option to get you the awesome performance off the line of an EV while handling the range anxiety concerns so many people have.
