Mazda Kiyora concept and new diesel models

4 Sep, 2008 5 Comments

Mazda has gone concept crazy, with the brand set to showcase yet another addition to the growing Nagari concept range at the Paris motor show.

This latest instalment is a lightweight next generation urban compact concept dubbed the Kiyora – meaning ‘clean and pure’ in Japanese.

Engineered as a self-proclaimed harmony between driving pleasure and environmental and safety features, the Kiyora debuts Mazda’s long-term technology development vision of “Sustainable Zoom-Zoom”.

It is based on an all-new platform designed to minimise weight and maximise safety, powered by a next-generation four-cylinder direct-injection engine.

Joining the Kiyora concept in Paris will also be three world premieres from Mazda, with the new face lifted MX-5 and two new diesel variants added to the current range.

Mazda’s newly developed MZR-CD 2.2-litre turbo diesel engine will now feature in the Mazda6 line-up whilst the Mazda2 receives a MZ-CD 1.6-liter diesel.

Wonder if they’ve built an auto gearbox that can handle the MZR-CD yet.

I believe with the new engine (2.2) it will have an auto gearbox. Rumoured to also be available in the CX-7, hope that is true.
