HIROSHIMA, Japan: Mazda Motor Corporation will
hold the world premiere of a new sports car concept model at the
2015 Tokyo Motor Show, which runs from October 30 through November
8.\*1
A total of 14 models will be on display at the Mazda stand,
including crossover concept Mazda KOERU making its first appearance
in Japan, two racing-spec Mazda MX-5s and the Cosmo 110S, first
introduced in 1967.
The design of the sports car concept to be unveiled in Tokyo is
modern but maintains a sense of lineage and authenticity, appearing
almost to condense Mazda's entire history of sports car development
into a single model.
In line with the company's theme for the Tokyo Motor Show this
year, "Accelerate toward our dreams," Mazda will make an appeal for
the brand's unique approach to driving pleasure.
In addition to the sports car concept, Mazda KOERU will be on
display along with new-generation models featuring SKYACTIV
Technologies and 'KODO - Soul of Motion' design.
A motor sports exhibit will feature racing-spec Roadsters and
the Cosmo Sport will compliment a heritage display showing Mazda's
history of convention-defying engineering.
