Tokyo, Japan, Oct. 14, 2003 - (JCN Newswire) - Mazda Motor Corporation
zooms into the 2003 Tokyo Motor Show with the strongest line of
production and concept cars in company history, including the world
premier of the two-seat Ibuki concept, an open-top, lightweight sports
car that hints at a possible design direction of a future Mazda
Roadster. Joining the Ibuki concept on the stand are key environmental
technologies being developed by Mazda such as the unique RENESIS
hydrogen rotary engine (also a world premier) and the company's latest
production models, including the all-new Mazda Axela.

The 37th Tokyo Motor Show will be held at the Makuhari Messe Convention
Center in Chiba City and open to the public from Saturday, October 25th
to Wednesday November 5th, 2003. Mazda president Hisakazu Imaki is
scheduled to host a press briefing at the Mazda stand in the Makuhari
Messe Central Hall on Wednesday, October 22nd from 14:10 to 14:30.

Mazda's theme for the 2003 Tokyo Motor Show, "Zoom-Zoom to the Future,"
highlights the continuing evolution of the company's Zoom-Zoom spirit,
embodied by the consecutive successes scored by Mazda's new-generation
vehicles: Atenza/Mazda6, Demio/Mazda2, Mazda RX-8 and the
newly-introduced Axela/Mazda3 have all received critical acclaim from
media and customers in markets around the world and are helping drive
Mazda's current sales success. With this year's theme, Mazda is also
emphasizing its intention to continue delivering "exciting and
exhilarating driving experiences" to its customers.
