Is Mazda a Joint Venture or Domestic Vehicle?
1 Answers
Mazda is a joint venture vehicle. The models under the Mazda brand utilize Japanese technology but are produced and assembled within China, hence classified as joint venture vehicles. Mazda's headquarters is located in Hiroshima, Japan, and was established in 1920. Its vehicle models are primarily sold in Asia, Europe, and North America. Mazda is the world's first automotive company to develop and produce rotary engines. The rotary engine directly converts the combustion expansion force of combustible gas into driving torque. Compared to reciprocating engines, the rotary engine eliminates useless linear motion, resulting in a more compact and lighter engine for the same power output, with lower vibration and noise levels, offering significant advantages.
