Powertrain Options and Availability
All MX-5 models used a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, which made 170 horsepower with the standard manual shift and 166 hp with an automatic transmission. In 2006, a five-speed manual was standard on Club Spec, base, and Touring; six-speed on the others. For 2007, SV and Sport models got the five-speed; others kept the six-speed manual. Available for all except the SV, the six-speed automatic included paddle shifters.
