Have You Ever Owned a Wankel Rotary Engine?

@wildbill83 Yeah they definitely were a niche market. Much like the modern electrics I think. I drove it a few times and didn't like the squished grape feeling I got when I stepped on the accelerator and the revs didn't change for a minute or two.

@hippyjoe1955 main reason I went with my current S4, descent power, good in winter/snow, will pull well in any gear, and is still practical/will seat 4 adults

@wildbill83 Yeah that makes sense. I own a F150 4 wheel drive with a 3.5 liter gas engine. No end of torque. I can run up 11% grades at highway speed and it won't down shift of lug.

@Tastyfrzz Really smooth.
On an old Mazda Cosmo, years ago.

I don't think anyone makes the engine anymore. Seals gave out too soon.

@Tastyfrzz That was the main problem.
Mazda had anounced the return of a Wankel powered car for 2020, anyhow.
