Mazda3 global production reaches 3M units
26 May 2011
Mazda Motor Corporation announced that cumulative production of the Mazda3 (known in Japan as the Mazda Axela) reached three million units on 26 April 2011, seven years and ten months since production of the first-generation model commenced.
The Mazda3 is a global model; it is produced in three locations—Mazda’s Hofu Plant in Yamaguchi, Japan, the Changan Ford Mazda Automobile (CFMA) plant in Nanjing, China, and AutoAlliance (Thailand) (AAT)—and sold in approximately 90 countries and regions. The three-millionth Mazda3 was produced at the Hofu Plant. It is a Japanese-specification five-door hatchback with Mazda’s MZR-2.0L engine and i-stop, Mazda’s unique idling stop system.
Good numbers, they have no hybrid and that does not seem to matter.
