Mazda Motor Corp will soon debut its better, lighter, sportier, more fuel efficient refreshed Mazda MX-5 Miata. The new car went on sale last week in Japan and its entry price was lowered; however its real test will be in North America, where the roadster goes on sale this summer. The Japanese automaker plans to sell 30,000 MX-5 Miatas globally and is expected to soak up at least half that demand. Mazda CEO, Masamichi Kogai, said: “We don’t have such high volume expectations, compared with the Mazda2 or Mazda3. But it’s a Mazda brand icon…It will help us raise the value of the Mazda brand.” If you would like to read the full article please click on the link below:

Mazda2 Not Coming to U.S.

Mazda 1 mazda2 subcompact not coming

Mazda seems to have changed its mind once again and is no longer importing the 2016 Mazda2 vehicles into the U.S., despite being built just south of the border. According to recent reports, Mazda decided that the subcompact just isn’t profitable enough in the United States. Mazda reportedly sold 13,615 units last year, against 59,340 Honda Fits and 63,192 Ford Fiestas and 93,518 Chevy Sonics. Robert Davis, Mazda Senior Vice President of U.S. Operations, said: “It will always be there if we need it” – which suggests that if the circumstances change, a spike in gas prices, for example, Mazda could bring it back into the states.

SKYACTIV TECHNOLOGY – Unlike Any Other Powertrains

Mazda 2 skyactive grey blue

It began with a philosophy that the potential of the modern sedan had not been fully realized. So Mazda challenged the status quo by bringing efficiency and performance together in the same vehicle. The SKYACTIV-G engine only tells part of the story. It delivers abundant power-but also works in coordination with other SKYACTIV TECHNOLOGY features to enhance the overall driving experience. That means, with up to an EPA-estimated 40 highway MPG, you get more uninterrupted driving enjoyment. If you would like to read the full article please click on the link below:

Mazda Plans to Boost Fleet Sales by 25%

Mazda 2 boost fleet sales by 25

Mazda recently revealed that it plans on growing its fleet sales by 25% this upcoming year. The Japanese automaker believes that its model range is key to the growth and the Mazda CX-3 compact SUV takes the brand into a small SUV sector for the first time. The new Mazda2 is expected to attract a new market – public sector fleets and employees opting for company cars. Steve Tomlinson, said: “The launch of the all-new Mazda2 and Mazda CX-3 coupled with rip-roaring success of the Mazda3 and further enhancements to the Mazda6 and Mazda CX-5, which have both been long-time fleet favorites, gives the brand a powerful model line-up in the corporate sector. I am confident that we will see a further major increase in fleet sales in 2015/16, potentially a 25% increase.” If you would like to read the full article please click on the link below:

Mazda Sets Up Parts Hub in Thailand

Mazda has designated Thailand as its spare-parts distribution hub for global exports and has officially opened a new parts distribution center that is focused on improving the quality of its after-sales service. Mazda expects sales to grow dramatically in the near future and the Japanese automaker wants to be prepared. Hidesuke Takesue, President of Mazda Sales Thailand, said: “In the past, Mazda’s parts management in this region was handled by our business partner and we lagged behind our rivals. The new parts distribution center will dramatically help us improve our parts management system, since we can fully control all of our own. Thailand and other Asean countries have high potential for economic growth, and this is the largest market for Mazda to grow our business.” If you would like to read the full article please click on the link below:
