2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata Grand Touring interior overhead view, top down

Shot from above with the soft top stowed, this overhead view reveals the full sweep of the MX-5's minimalist cockpit — dual instrument pods, a centered infotainment display showing an Apple device connection, the short-throw manual shifter, and black leather buckets with red stitching. The open-air simplicity of the layout reinforces that the Miata's purpose has never changed.
