Four reference models that reflect the eagerness of the development
group that created them are on display. These include
a next-generation sports car, the RX-EVOLV, powered
by a revolutionary new rotary engine (RE), and a new SUV,
the ACTIVEHICLE CONCEPT. The EVOLV is a unique 4-
door sports car that can comfortably seat four adults. The
EVOLV's new 280 hp RE showcases Mazda's greatest technological
advantage, and because this engine is naturally aspirated
instead of turbocharged, it is lighter, more compact and
achieves greater fuel efficiency through the entire range of driving-
even while idling.
Female visitors have been
showing strong interest in the next-generation NEOSPACE compact,
powered by a 1.5 liter direct-injection gasoline engine. The
"FreeStyle Door System" without a B-pillar lends to the spacious
feeling of the interior. Another concept model, the NEXTOURER,
blends the luxury of a sedan with the functionality of an SUV.
