Mazda lineup will be reduced by four models

The Japanese brand is going to refresh the ruler and prepares a place in it for new models. In 2025, four cars will fall under the knife at once, the market indicators of which were not high enough to save their life. This is a small Mazda2, a CX-3 crossover close to it, the Mazda6 sedan and the MX-30 electric almighty.

Mazda2 in the current generation debuted already in 2014, and experienced updates in 2019 and 2023. In the 2024th sedan and hatchback, the media system was replaced, but only in the Japanese market. Perhaps the Mazda2 will be reborn to the electric car under the recently registered name Mazda2e, but there is no official information about this yet.

In September, Mazda says goodbye to CX-3, which is sold almost unchanged from the same 2014. The model has already been discontinued in North America and Europe, but it is still sold in Japan and in some Asian markets. Probably, the CX-3 will have a successor-this is a small crossover that lit up on sketches at the beginning of the year. Production will be commissioned in Thailand, and the geography of sales is not yet clear.

Mazda responded to the development of a frame SUV on the new Mazda CX-5 debuts the SkyActiv-Zda MX-5 engine turned into a kind of extreme vintage Porsche

Even longer – since 2012 – Mazda6 of the current generation is produced. Although he experienced several “face suspenders”, he could not gain the necessary Mazda popularity among buyers. Back in 2021, Mazda6 was removed from the line in the United States, and in 2023-from the UK. Last year, the turn of Japan came, and this year the “six” says goodbye to Australia. An indirect successor will be an electric 6E on the basis of Changan, which debuted a year ago in China under the name EZ-6. The other day she appeared in Europe.

I did not find my niche in the electric MX-30 market. According to some reports, a crossover with a too high price and a small supply of strokes can be removed from the conveyor this month. He will not have updates, not to mention the change of generation, but for some time the version of the E-Skyactiv R-EV with a rotary engine will remain afloat.
