RX8 Best Rollover Avoidance Tested

I found this to be surprising because I was not very impressed with the RX8 handling after driving my car for a while.

Handling alone is not completely responsible for rollover, though. It could be that the RX-8 comes with not-so-perfect tires that causes the car to lose traction and go into a slide before it rolls over.
Either way, kudos to Mazda on the RX-8 for winning this test.

I think its the fact that the engine is so damn low, rotaries have a lot of advantages over conventional piston engines regarding size/weight.

The RX8 is going to be one potent car once they release the turbo version.

You're thinking about getting one, aren't you?

I agree that handling may not be the best determination of roll over risk. However, I was not as confident with the feel of the car as I have been with others.
