2019 Geneva MotorShow - Mazda
Mazda 3 III
- Mazda could introduce the new generation of its C-segment sedan, the Mazda 3, which remains one of the two best-selling models of the brand.
- But in the past two years, the Mazda 3 sales have dropped significantly, from 450,000 units in 2016 to 350,000 in 2018, which decided the manufacturer to replace this model launched in 2013 with a new model with an avant-garde style, allowing the model to go out of fashion very slowly.
- Mazda still does not use hybrid and electric powertrains, despite the fact that the manufacturer had been a pioneer in rotary engine technology.
Mazda CX30
- Mazda presents a new SUV that fits between the CX3 and the CX5, but curiously is called CX30, perhaps to formalize the future names of the SUV range of the Japanese manufacturer (CX20, CX30, CX40, CX50).
- The new Mazda CX30 becomes a new competitor for the Nissan Qashqai (which will be renewed in 2020), but also for Renault Kadjar, Peugeot 3008, Opel Grandland or Citroen C5 Aircross.
- The Mazda CX30 will be manufactured at the Japanese Hofu site, at a rate of 200,000 units per year according to Inovev.
- The engines of the CX30 are taken from the CX3 and CX5.
