Before the year ends, Mazda will expand its diesel offerings in Australia.

An example is the Mazda 3 diesel that will join the Mazda6 and is expected to arrive in September. It will be available in both sedan and hatchback form, the Mazda 3 will have the same engine as the present Mazda6 diesel.

Last May 30, Mazda celebrated the 40th anniversary of its rotary engine. Mazda launched on May 30, 1967 the Mazda Cosmo Sport – the world’s first car to use twin-rotor rotary engine. After that year, Mazda has produced almost two million vehicles that were powered by the rotary engine.
