Premacy with 2.0-liter Engine

Mazda has added major enhancements to Premacy to enhance maneuvering stability, ride comfort, quietness and safety. The enhanced Premacy goes on sale today at Mazda, Mazda Anfini, and Mazda Autozam dealerships throughout Japan.

Mazda Premacy Sport Model
Two-Wheel-Drive 2.0-Liter DOHC Engine 7-Passenger 'Sport' Premacy Model

Premacy has a compact body that provides enough interior room to accommodate three rows of seats and up to seven passengers.

Mazda also has made major improvements to enhance its stylishness and liveliness through modifications to the exterior and interior design and has created a more sporty feeling while retaining the best points of the original Premacy. The addition of a 2.0-liter engine version strengthens Premacy's "dynamic DNA," a common characteristic for all Mazda vehicles.

With its flexible seat arrangements and excellent driving stability, the Premacy has been well received among young families since its introduction in April 1999.

The major changes to Premacy are as follows.
- Modifications have been made to the bumpers, headlights, and rear combination lamps to create a more active styling.
- The seat upholstery and door trim fabric have been changed, for a more deluxe interior feel.
- The Sport model features a 2.0-liter engine providing more power and better responsiveness.
- Body rigidity has been improved in many areas and the suspension has been tuned to provide better maneuvering stability, a more comfortable ride, and further quietness. These enhancements increase stability and offer more driving pleasure.
- Comfort and convenience have been improved through the addition of a wide collapsible armrest for the driver' s seat and a power window control on the driver's side with a "quick refresh" mode that is useful for letting in fresh air.
- Safety improvements including water-repellent side mirrors, DSC (dynamic stability control) (Sport model), and ISO-Fix* compliant child seat securing mechanisms with top tether hooks as standard equipment (on all except the C model) have been made.

Monthly sales target of Premacy is 1,800 units.

* ISO-Fix is a child seat securing system conforming to standards established by the ISO (International Organization for Standardization).
