Mazda production strong, 15.1% more than 2014 across same period
Mazda has put out a lot of interesting new models over the last few months, with the Mazda 2, 3, and 6 really coming on strong. Facelift models have helped to bring the image in line across the range, as well as the all-new MX-5 really helping to push Mazda’s brand image up. Production has been ramped up to meet increased demand, although sales figures have fallen a little compared to last year. Nevertheless- Mazda is confident that the models they have produced will spend little time sitting around stock yards.
