After successfully entering the passenger car market with its stylish micro car, Mazda moved on to develop and launch an authentic small passenger car. Bearing the name that means family in Italian, the Mazda Familia was developed as an 800cc family car that was expected to drive dramatic business growth in a country where motorization was underway. But Mazda took the time to carefully analyze market trend and paid attention to a light van that can carry people and/or cargo. This led Mazda to launch the Familia Van with a rear gate as an innovative light van that feels like a passenger car.

Whenever I drive from Hiroshima to Okayama to visit my grandparents, the R360 Coupe had always been my partner on the road.
For a long time, my dream was to buy and drive the Porter Van. Meeting with other fans and owners to celebrate the 50th anniversary is a wonderful memory that I will never forget.
Since I discovered the CX-8, I began to deeply appreciate Mazda’s manufacturing philosophy.
