Mazda Unveils Kazamai Concept Car
Lighter is fuel-efficient as far as the car manufacturers of the soon to be unveiled Mazda Kazamai are concerned. Made up largely of plastic finish from the exteriors all the way to the engine compartment, the concept car from Mazda provides a glimpse of the future cars that will be offered in the market.
With its lightweight and aerodynamic concept, a 30% improvement in fuel consumption is expected once this car begins manufacturing. The target date is 2011 so watch out for it!
The Kazamai features plastic bumpers, panels and engine cover, as well as aluminium and aluminium alloys for its bonnet, chassis and engine block. It’s 100kg lighter than a comparable current-production model like the Kuga.
The Kazamai is fitted with a next-generation version of the 2.0-litre petrol engine as used in the CX-7, with variable valve control, new combustion control system and new catalytic converter, and improved thermal efficiency, as well as the next-generation six-speed automatic gearbox.
