Is the Mazda engine domestically produced or imported?
2 Answers
Mazda engines are imported. The Mazda CX-30 excels in the following aspects: 1. Exterior design. The Mazda CX-30 adopts the 'KODO 2.0' design philosophy for its overall shape, creating a very smooth and flowing appearance. The front features the latest family-style design, with a shield-shaped grille seamlessly integrated with eagle-eye LED headlights on both sides, delivering a strong visual impact. The side profile showcases elongated lines, with the visual center of gravity leaning towards the rear, resembling a drawn bow full of tension. 2. Interior design. The interior of the Mazda CX-30 continues Mazda's 'human-centric' design philosophy, with the dashboard layout tilted towards the driver's side for easier operation. Additionally, the CX-30 is equipped with a three-spoke multifunction steering wheel and features simulated metal-finish buttons as accents, enhancing the premium feel.
As a car owner who frequently researches engines, I find Mazda's situation quite interesting. Currently, Mazda models sold in China, such as the Axela and CX-5, which are their main models, are assembled by domestic joint ventures. For example, the Skyactiv engines produced at the Nanjing factory have core components like cylinder blocks and cylinder heads that are indeed domestically manufactured, but precision parts such as high-pressure fuel injectors are still imported. In the past, during the era of the old Mazda6, it was common to see purely imported engines, but that's rarely the case now. However, if you purchase an imported sports car like the MX-5, the entire engine bay is made up of original Japanese components.
