Most Beautiful Concept Car of the Year Award for Mazda VISION COUPE
This is the 2nd honor for the Mazda VISION COUPE, for in January, it won the “Most Beautiful Concept Car of the Year” award at the Festival Automobile International in Paris. While a production version of the VISION COUPE is not in the works, the concept is being utilized as a “design vision model” for future Mazda cars. It has a more refined interpretation of the KODO—Soul of Motion design language, resulting in a more luxurious look and feel. This is a further elevation of Mazda’s aim of offering vehicles that offer the premium design and features of marque luxury brands but at a much more affordable price.
