THE ICON EVOLVED — A CLEARER EVERYDAY SIGNATURE
The NC proved that an icon could grow without becoming distant. Its stronger structure, broader proportions and everyday usability allowed the Roadster to stay connected to its drivers through more journeys, more weather and more of real life.
This Full-LED design works with the NC's own rounded housings and wider rear presence. It does not imitate an earlier MX-5 or disguise the car as an ND. It gives the third-generation Roadster a cleaner, more confident identity of its own.
More capable. Still connected. Unmistakably NC.
NC-specific design shaped around the original rear proportions
Clear Edition for a cleaner, more technical appearance
Smoke Edition for darker contrast and a more understated finish
Full-LED road-lighting functions
Dynamic startup animation
Startup animation can be disabled through the internal plug
E-Mark-certified configuration
IP67-rated weather protection
UV-resistant polycarbonate lens and high-strength ABS housing
Sealed, dust- and moisture-resistant construction
