The next generation rotary racing car "MAZDA RX-VISION GT3 CONCEPT" has been added!
The newly added car is the "Mazda RX-VISION GT3 CONCEPT", a racing car modified from the "RX-VISION" concept car presented by Mazda at the 2015 Tokyo Motor Show.

The vehicle class is Gr. 3 class, and is equipped with a 4-rotor engine in a lightweight body.
It follows the engine concept of the 787B, which won the 24 Hours of Le Mans endurance race, and combines it with modern SKYACTIVE technology to achieve unprecedented driving performance.
