Japanese automaker Toyo Kogyo “Mazda” went from creator of commercial tricycles and passenger cars in the 1950s to the world’s leading sole producer of Wankel-powered cars in the 1970s.

Toyo Kogyo first began investing money and effort into Wankel rotary engines when they received a license to develop and manufacture the technology in November 1961, and their first Wankel engine powered car was The Mazda Cosmo was released in limited production in 1967. Ten years later, Felix Wankel built the first working prototype engine.

To appreciate the scale of this achievement We must recognize that German automaker NSU failed to put a Wankel engine-powered car into production, and French automaker Citroën did itself a significant financial loss by attempting the same thing.

One might ask why Mazda devoted so much effort to the high-risk challenge of developing the Wankel rotary engine. Amidst significant technical challenges, Mazda is attempting to enter the automobile market competing with competitors such as Toyota and Nissan/ Datsun They built their first four-wheeled vehicle, which was named R360, in 1960 and was powered by a small 356cc engine.

To build Mazda’s public image as a technologically advanced innovator. The company decided that rotary engines would be the technology they would use to identify their company and cars.

The key to Mazda’s success in bringing the Wankel design to production was creative problem solving by their engineers. Wankel engines are notorious for problems related to the rotor end seals causing “chitter” in the casing and Poor sealing causes excessive oil consumption. Not only that But vibration problems plagued the engine so much that the rotor housing was electroplated. It came out after 200 hours of use.

Mazda engineers decided to switch from a single rotor engine design to a twin rotor engine design to alleviate vibration problems. and developed a carbon-aluminum tip seal using a relatively complex process for fabricating a rotor housing that creates a suitable hard inner surface. This provides the end seals with the necessary resistance to impact damage.

Development of technology to create reliable Wankel engines and provides optimum fuel economy It took many years and several engine models in development to come to fruition. The first engine to use carbon-aluminum end seals with a cast aluminum rotor frame with a chrome interior was the L10A, which also had twin spark plugs in the combustion chamber and dual distributors.

This engine is built by combining two 491 cc rotors. This gives a total engine capacity of 982 cc and produces more than 100 horsepower with less than 100 lb-ft of torque. The L10A engine was first used in the Mazda Cosmo sports car, before being used in a number of Mazda cars.

In 1967, the same year Mazda introduced the twin-blade 10A engine in the expensive Mazda Cosmo, they also installed it in the light and small Mazda R100, which was more affordable. Not only expensive but also provides performance that makes other sports cars Many others will be ashamed as well.

However, the R100’s suspension tends to tilt. Therefore, the car was not suitable for the fully independent suspension of the Datsun 510, the “poor man’s BMW 1602”.

With the successful development of the Wankel engine into a production engine in the Mazda Cosmo sports car, Mazda has begun the process of installing this technology in other non-traditional production vehicles. Its dual purpose is to simultaneously try to popularize the technology and test it in the market to see how well the rotary engine is received by the average car buyer.

To achieve this goal, Mazda offers some car models with conventional engines with piston pistons or Wankel rotors. The cars are mechanically identical except for the engine. Although there are some differences in body style between the regular and rotary models. and have different names One of the models chosen is the Mazda Grand Familia, a small car in the same class as the Toyota Corolla and Mitsubishi Lancer.

Mazda uses a variety of names for its Grand Familia models, depending on the market in which they are sold. in the United States, Australia, and New Zealand The car is called the Mazda 808 when equipped with a conventional piston engine and the RX-3 when equipped with a Wankel rotation.

For the Japanese, Australian, and European markets, the RX-3 received the model designation S102A and was equipped with the 10A twin rotor engine pioneered in the Mazda Cosmo. For the United States, the model designation was S124A and used the larger 12A twin rotor engine. This unit included 573 cc rotors. The two engines combine to create a total volume of 1,146 cc, resulting in an output of 125 horsepower, compared to the 10A’s 109 horsepower at 7,000 rpm and 96 lb-ft of torque. The 10A and 12A engines have the same diameter. But the cylinders and rotors of the 12A engine were made 10 mm wider and therefore had a larger capacity.

Series I RX-3 cars were built in three body styles. two door coupe four door sedan and a five-door station wagon (This was the first station wagon in the world to use a Wankel engine.) The RX-3 had slightly different styling from its 808 siblings, with a slightly more prominent honeycomb grille and twin round headlights.

The rear styling of the RX-3 is also slightly different, with round tail lights on the coupe and sedan models. Mazda models with both piston and rotary engines have the same size fuel tanks. Therefore, due to the fuel consumption of the RX-3, Rotary models are not sized properly for piston engine models. Making it as large as 60 liters (15.9 US gallons) fuel tanks are used for both. This means that piston cars have much better mileage than similar cars from other manufacturers.
