Who Owns Mazda: The Mazda Motor Corporation

The Mazda Motor Corporation was founded in Hiroshima, Japan in 1920, making three-wheeled motorcycles called, “Autorickshaws.” These were the highlight of Mazda sponsored events in the 1930s, causing the popularity of motorized carts to skyrocket and bringing the Mazda name to light. The first passenger vehicle was created in 1940, but Mazda was solely known for their three-wheeled carts. Since more affordable cars were being demanded, Mazda started compiling designs for compact cars, trucks, and three-wheeled vehicles that ended up leading to the creation of the famous Mazda rotary engine.

What Sets Mazda Apart From Other Brands?

Now that SKYACTIV® TECHNOLOGY is in newer Mazda models including the Mazda3 and Mazda6, you’ll see less of the legendary rotary engines that gave Mazda a start. With new innovative designs and technology, other manufacturers are finding it hard to compete. With some of the most powerful and fuel-efficient engines, how can you even compare models from Honda or Toyota?

Mazda Technology

With the engine technology at its finest, Mazda is also focusing on advanced safety technology including features like a 360-degree monitor found on select trims to assist in backing up and parking, as well as giving a clearer view of your surroundings. This technology also makes navigating Sarasota or Tampa a breeze. Improve your driving experience with a new Mazda and all of the technology one has to offer.
