The 2017 Tokyo Motor Show runs from October 28 through November 5, and Mazda will debut new concept models, including the world debut of a compact hatchback concept.
While details about new compact hatchback concept have been sparse, it’s expected to incorporate Mazda’s next-generation technology and design. It will include the SKYACTIV®-Vehicle Architecture and next-generation technologies that apply a human-centered design philosophy for optimal functionality. It will be powered by the SKYACTIV®-X, set to become the world’s first commercial gasoline engine to use compression ignition. Mazda will also have a design vision model on display at the show, which will define the next generation of Mazda design, resulting in a more profound expression of the globally-acclaimed KODO design language.

SKYACTIV®-X Engine at 2017 Tokyo Motor Show
Visitors to the 2017 Tokyo Motor Show will also be able to see the technology exhibit of the SKYACTIV®-X next-generation gasoline engine. The SKYACTIV®-X engine uses a compression ignition, in which a fuel-air mixture ignites spontaneously when compressed by the piston. This results in a number of benefits, including higher efficiency, power and acceleration performance. The Mazda CX-8, a new three-row crossover SUV that goes on sale in Japan in December, will also be on display at the show, as well as a special edition Mazda Roadster (MX-5) Red Top featuring a dark cherry red canopy and auburn Nappa leather upholstery.
