Who Knew? – Mazda Instills KODO in New Concept Cars

Mazda recently unveiled two concept models, the Mazda KAI CONCEPT and the Mazda VISION COUPE at the 45th Tokyo Motor Show. The new models are a continuance of Mazda’s new design philosophy: KODO – Soul of Motion. A philosophy to use design to breathe life to a car and make it more than a means of transportation or a mass of metal.

Mazda intends to go forward into future model designs with goal of bringing energy and rhythm to create even more elegant cars. The Mazda KAI CONCEPT compact hatchback features the next-generation SKYACTIV-X gasoline engine and advanced SKYACTIV-Vehicle Architecture. It boasts refinements in all areas of dynamic performance to produce a dramatically quieter, more comfortable ride and an enhanced performance feel. The KODO design features muscular, solid proportions and the use of reflections over the body sides to bring it to life.

The VISION COUPE represents Mazda’s design vision for next-generation models; a more mature expression of KODO to achieve a more elegant and premium styling. The exterior design thought by some as the “sexiest” that Mazda has revealed is complemented by a cockpit layout and interior design meant to truly connect the car and driver.
