Ethanol Powered Mazda Furai Racecar



This is a concept vehicle which few of us will ever drive. The Furai is Mazda’s next hope in the future of car racing. While going green on the race track is not exactly an eco-minded endeavor, we’re still intrigued that this vehicle can be fully powered by ethanol. The very cool looking performance sports car shows that if ethanol has a place in the auto industry, that place is in the car racing arena.



It is a powerful machine, capable of achieving 60mph in about 3.2 seconds, and its maximum speed is 172mph. Instead of working from a regular chassis, the manufacturer decided to begin with a fully formed Courage C65 chassis, Mazda’s chassis of choice. The vehicle weighs a bit less than a ton, and its engine produces around 460bhp.

The Furai, while fully functioning, is never going to make it past the concept stage. It is simply a promotional vehicle. But at least they fitted it with an ethanol engine. There is no doubt that ethanol is a dicey proposition as a fuel source for vehicles. The fact is, that it can cause a number of problems if it’s sourcing is not managed properly. However, it is a potential stopgap replacement to our energy problems.

The All-New Mazda BT-50

The All-New Mazda BT-50
The All-New Mazda BT-50Mazda released the first photos of the all-new BT-50. As we've mentioned many times before, the two pickup truck models are the result of a collaboration between Ford and Mazda and will both get their world premiere at this week's Australian International Motor Show in Sydney.

The Japanese automaker's iteration of the compact pickup truck theme gets its own unique exterior cues and interior styling inspired by the firm's passenger car range. Though far less aggressive than originally implied on the first teaser sketches, the BT-50's exterior design is more funky than it's Ford sibling. The same can be said about the interior which is said to feature all the accommodations of a passenger car.

Here's what Mazda had to say about the new BT-50 in its teaser press release:

"It offers all the functionality required for business use combined with passenger car-like comfort for family use; and for active customers in Australia and Europe, it is the perfect answer for all kinds of outdoor leisure activities.

"With modern and refined styling both inside and out, the All-New Mazda BT-50 will raise the bar in the utility segment and for the first time provide a realistic alternative to the family wagon and 4x4 SUV."

2009 Mazda Sports Car RX-8 Hydrogen RE

2009 Mazda Sports Car RX-8 Hydrogen RE

2009 Japan Mazda Motor Corporation (HIROSHIMA) announced that it has built the first Mazda RX-8 Hydrogen RE vehicle with Norwegian specifications, developed specifically for participation in HyNor, Norway’s national hydrogen project. The first unit will take part in ceremonies marking the official opening of HyNor’s hydrogen filling stations.
2009 Mazda Sports Car RX-8 Hydrogen RE

The initial opening ceremony will be held in Oslo on May 11, 2009. The RX-8 Hydrogen RE will then undergo certification to meet local standards and will be used for maintenance staff training. Mazda plans to commence leasing of Norwegian specification RX-8 Hydrogen RE models in Norway in summer 2009.

Unlike the RX-8 Hydrogen RE currently being leased in Japan, the HyNor-specification Mazda RX-8 Hydrogen RE is based on the latest European-specification Mazda RX-8 with left-hand drive and a manual transmission.

The HyNor project aims to enable hydrogen vehicles to travel along a 580-kilometer stretch of highway by establishing a chain of hydrogen stations between Stavanger and Oslo in Norway.

Mazda agreed to collaborate with HyNor on the project in November 2007 and began validation of the RX-8 Hydrogen RE’s driving performance on Norwegian public roads in October 2008.

Mazda 6s GT Luxury Sleek Sport Sedan Car Design 2011


Luxury and elegant new car design concept in 2009, Mazda 6s GT is an innovative vehicle concept ant the most sport sedan car that people looking for. The 2009 Mazda 6s GT sleek design starts up front with angular headlamps which stretch around the corners of the six and finish up high to accent the bulging front fenders. The car roof-line is pushed back toward the shortened rear deck lid. A handy gadget in 2009 Mazda 6s GT is the keyless, push button start. The leather trimmed seats and elegant comfort interior design are provide a good amount of support for the driver and front passenger, with front seats receiving a heating function as well. Rear passengers will benefit from more leg room as well. The 2009 Mazda 6s GT large cabin grants ample leg room and headroom, and a power sunroof allows more light to flow into the greenhouse. The Mazda6 GT packs a 3.7-litre V6 with 272 horsepower and is a more than capable power plant. This car can move. Driving dynamics are superb, with nice light steering and nimble handling.
 
It was 7 years ago when we had our last long-term 2009 Mazda 6, a new for 2003 model car which replaced Mazda’s then-aging sedan lineup of 626 and Millennia. With a option between a 2.3-liter, 160 horse powerful engine four cylinder (6 i) and a 3.0-liter, 220-horse V6 (6 s), we opted for the 6 s paired with a sporty car five speed manual system technology. So for 2009, the Mazda 6s GT evolved to meet those demands: in size, engine offerings, and accoutrements. This new 24-valve gem, which, in its basic form also, serves duty in the Mazda CX-9 sport/utility and some Lincoln models, is paired solely to a six-speed automatic and delivers respectable EPA mileage ratings of 17/25, which equal those of the last gen’s much smaller 3.0 liter.

Mazda5 minivans recalled over fuel pump concerns


The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a safety recall on certain Mazda5 minivans from the 2009 and 2010 model year.
This recall focuses on the van’s fuel pump, with NHTSA citing that water may not have been completely removed from the pump’s harness connector before vehicle assembly. Thus, the connector pin may corrode, causing the pin to break. If the harness connector breaks, this could lead to an inoperative fuel pump. The Mazda5′s engine could stall, and the inability to restart the engine increases the risk of a crash.
Approximately 16,200 of the Mazda minivans are effected by this problem, and the safety recall is expected to begin on or before December 11th. Dealers will inspect the fuel pump connector and replace the harness free of charge. For the full details, follow the jump to read NHTSA’s official statement.

RX7 with manga stickers.

The Mazda RX7 is a favourite of Japanse car fans with it’s outrageous styling and distinctive rotary engines. It has been popular with modifiers and tuners for a good few years and there are plenty of nice examples around. This particular RX7 has an subtle bodykit, a massive rear wing, which actually does give downforce and soem very nicely done manga style stickers.

Note the obligatory huge rear exhaust and we really like the RX7 smoked lights. The entire car is covered with sponsor style stickers and part makers logos but the colours have been kept simple and the red and white colour scheme works really well.

 
 Front view showing the carbon fibre bonnet on this RX7 and the nice front bumper with plenty of aero vents.

Mazda Hakaze






The Hakaze is the third and final installment in Mazda's series of nature-inspired, hard-to-pronounce concepts for the 2007 auto-show season; the Nagare and the Ryuga debuted in L.A. and Detroit, respectively. As with those cars, Mazda said it's continuing the theme of flow and movement in this all-wheel-drive hatchback.
This time around, Mazda has chosen kite surfing as its muse. Everything from the exterior lines and wetsuit-like upholstery to the golden shimmery exterior is supposed to evoke images of hitching your surfboard to a kite off Hawaii's glistening shores. (What? You've never been kite surfing?)
According to Mazda, the Hakaze has approximately the same proportions as the Mazda3, but its higher hip point and wider stance would make it more at home in the crossover SUV segment. The Hakaze can be equipped with either a gas or diesel engine. The concept has a six-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive to maintain traction on sand.
The driver's seat features a wraparound cockpit design to give the car a sportier feel, and the rear two-thirds of the glass roof are removable to make it more roadster-like. All seats, including the rear ones, are electronically adjustable to expand the storage area in the hatchback. Additionally, the Hakaze offers a wireless internet connection and a digital camera that can film the road or the car's interior.
