8 min Video of Mazda's Hofu plant, Japan.
This was built in the mid 1980 and was state of the art back then, a 24/7 3 shift plant that ONLY made the Mazda 3 and then Mazda 6, and since the slow demise of Sedans and hatchback for SUV's, with the CX-5 in massive demand it is now built at Hofu from November last year (and Hiroshima).

Also new Turbo 6 is shown being made, plus a bit of the making of Mazda Skyactiv Auto and Manual FWD Transmissions.

 

50 millionth just produced - good onya Mazda

 

Yes, two for every Australian alive today!..

Happy my immediate family lay claim to 19 new Mazda's of these 50 million made over the past 50 years, all out of Japan.
