Mazda theme this year is to ‘Celebrate Driving’

-

Mazda will exhibit two concept models at the 2017 Tokyo Motor Show, one that heralds the company’s nextgenera­tion products and another that embodies the direction of the company’s next-generation design.

Mazda will also display the SKYACTIV-X next-generation gasoline engine as a technology exhibit at the show, which runs from Oct. 28 through Nov. 5. 1

Mazda’s theme for this year’s show – Mazda is committed to enriching people’s lives through “Celebrate Driving.” – indicates the company’s determinat­ion to continue offering cars that celebrate the driving experience, enrich lives and build a strong bond with customers.

The product concept model, a compact hatchback that fuses nextgenera­tion technology and design, will make its world premiere at the show.

The design vision model embodies the concepts that will define the next generation of Mazda design, resulting in a more profound expression of the globally acclaimed KODO design language Mazda debuted on the Mazda CX-5 in 2012.

The Mazda CX-8, a new three-row crossover SUV that goes on sale in Japan in December, will also be on display at the show.

The company’s flagship SUV in Japan, it features sophistica­ted styling and comfortabl­e seating in all three rows. Major upgrades to the SKYACTIV-D 2.2 clean diesel engine increase torque and power for composed performanc­e.

A special edition Mazda Roadster (MX-5) Red Top featuring a dark cherry red canopy and auburn Nappa leather upholstery will be exhibited.
