Learn About Mazda In 1 Minute

Mazda was founded in 1920 by Jujiro Matsuda, a Japanese entrepreneur with a pioneering spirit. He had a vision of creating a car that could be enjoyed by everyone around the world. He named the company after Ahura Mazda, the ancient god of intelligence, wisdom and harmony.

The first car manufactured by Mazdawas the Mazda-Go, a three-wheeled truck, which was introduced in 1931.  This groundbreaking vehicle was powered by a 500cc engine and was the first vehicle to be powered by a gasoline engine in Japan.  From then on, Mazda went on to become one of the most innovative car manufacturers in the world.

Mazda's design inspiration is drawn from the Japanese concept of Jinba Ittai - the harmonious relationship between a horse and its rider.  This idea is reflected in Mazda's designs, which are focused on providing a smooth and enjoyable driving experience.
