Mazda has announced the comeback of its rotary engine, also known as the Wankel engine, which it first introduced in the 1960s and quickly became a staple of the brand’s lineup.

This move showcases the company’s commitment to innovation and desire to offer a unique driving experience and is expected to boost sales.
