Other manufacturers such as Mercedes, Rolls-Royce, Norton, Suzuki, General Motors, Citroen, John Deere and Arctic Cat have tried experimenting with the Wankel engine. Some also were able to produce small series of the Wankel engine. However, the only producer of success that has been able to produce the engine designed by German engineer Felix Wankel in quantities is Mazda.By late 1950s, many manufacturers worldwide have devoted considerable resources to research and development of production of rotary engine (RE), but most were delivered because they were not able to overcome the difficult technical challenges that come with technology. It E 'only Mazda persevered and eventually managed to overcome all obstacles and successfully achieved RE mass production. Mazda also was able to introduce other vehicles on the market including the Familia Rotary Coupe, Savanna, RX-7 and Eunos Cosmo. And, of course, you know Mazda have constantly developed the economy and environmental performance of its motor vehicles RE is why they are still on sale today.
