Mazda is produced in Japan. Mazda is a Japanese automobile manufacturer headquartered in Hiroshima, Japan. Mazda's models include: Mazda CX-4, Mazda CX-5, Mazda CX-8, Mazda Atenza, Mazda 3 Axela, etc. Taking the 2021 Mazda 3 Axela as an example, it belongs to the compact car category with body dimensions of: length 4662mm, width 1797mm, height 1445mm, and a wheelbase of 2726mm. The 2021 Mazda 3 Axela is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 117PS, a maximum power of 86kW, a maximum torque of 148Nm, and is paired with a 6-speed manual transmission.
As an automotive enthusiast, I clearly remember Mazda's origins in Hiroshima, Japan, where Jujiro Matsuda founded the brand in the 1920s. After World War II, the factory was destroyed but quickly rebuilt, and it remains the heartland today, producing legendary sports cars like the MX-5. To meet global demand, Mazda has also established overseas factories, such as the Alabama plant in the U.S. producing the CX-5 and CX-50 exclusively for the North American market, reducing shipping costs and tariffs; the Mexico factory supports exports to the Americas; the Thailand plant handles Southeast Asian supply; and in China, localized models like the Mazda3 are produced through the FAW Mazda joint venture. This strategy allows them to maintain the high quality of Japanese craftsmanship while flexibly adapting to regional consumer preferences. I've researched that this globalized production is a common practice among automakers, saving costs while improving availability.
