What versions of the 2023 Mazda MX-5 are available in Canada and what are the differences?
The 2023 Mazda MX-5 is offered in Canada in two body styles and several trim levels. The soft-top roadster is available in GX (approximately $34,300), GS (approximately $37,900), GT (approximately $42,700) and GS-P (approximately $40,400). The MX-5 RF (Retractable Fastback) with folding hardtop is offered in GS-P RF (approximately $43,900) and GT RF (approximately $46,300). All versions are powered by the Skyactiv-G 2.0L producing 181 hp (155 lb-ft) paired with a standard 6-speed manual transmission, or an optional 6-speed automatic depending on the trim. The RF is popular in Canada because its hardtop provides better noise and thermal insulation for seasonal transitions, compared to the soft-top roadster. The GS with the manual gearbox is frequently cited as the best enjoyment-per-dollar trim — it includes LED headlights, optional Recaro seats and sufficient features without weighing the car down with gadgets that go against the MX-5's minimalist concept.
