The

Mazda
MX-5 Miata
is already undergoing a complete overhaul to enter its new generation, but the company has apparently realized the dire need for the Miata to be refreshed before it becomes completely obsolete ahead of the

new generation’s debut
. Thanks to a leaked Japanese brochure, we now have a few images of the 2013 MX-5 Roadster.
Launched in 2005, the third generation MX-5 (NC) received its first major update in 2008. It’s barely been touched since then, but 2013 will come with a second round of updates before the car gets canned for the new generation. These leaked images reveal that the new MX-5 will receive a newly designed front bumper featuring a five-point grille with a more curved upper part, redesigned fog-lamp surrounds, and black bezels for the headlamps. Mazda will also be offering a new set of alloy wheels, plus a new choice of exterior colors.
For the interior, the 2013 MX-5 will get a newly designed dashboard cowl and blacked-out instrument panel gauges. It also looks like Mazda took care of improving the safety systems as the 2013 MX-5 comes with an "active-hood" that pops up to reduce injuries in car-pedestrian accidents.
More details on the 2013 Mazda MX-5 will be unveiled soon, so stay tuned!
