The 2026 Mazda MX-5 Miata sees a modest price increase of $600 across most of its lineup. The soft-top roadster continues to offer a six-speed manual gearbox as the standard for enthusiasts, while the Grand Touring remains the exclusive trim for those opting for the six-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters, a $920 upgrade.
Mechanically, the Miata stays true to its roots with the proven 2.0-liter Skyactiv-G engine, delivering 181 horsepower. For 2026, the performance-oriented Club trim retains its optional Brembo BBS Recaro Package, which now introduces a fresh black Alcantara interior with light gray contrast stitching and sleek black accents.
The hardtop RF model sees a slightly higher price jump of $750 for the Club trim, which now starts at $43,135 and includes the Brembo package as standard. Buyers looking to customize can still choose from four premium paint colors for $595 or upgrade to Tan Nappa leather on Grand Touring models for an additional $300.
