It's based on new cars sold. No new RX-8s were sold in 2013.
What this does mean that as Mazda continues to overhaul their lineup with SkyActive stuff, this number is going to keep climbing significantly. And THAT means that if they do end up bringing a rotary back, it's not the end of their CAFE score if it has less than desired mileage numbers. They have plenty of room for flex, since they are already almost hitting the 2025 CAFE score (Which does not equal MPG), 11 years early.
