Mazda plans to sell EVs again in the US from 2025, but it will build them in Japan, which means they will not qualify for tax credits, Nikkei Asia reports.
Mazda's first battery-electric production model, the MX-30 crossover, has not been the success story fans of the Japanese brand had hoped it would be. In the US, the Mazda MX-30 only survived for two model years, 2022 and 2023, being plagued by a subpar range rating of 100 miles and limited availability – only California buyers could get one. Many people called it a compliance car because of this, and the sales numbers reflected that.
There are cost reasons behind this decision, obviously, but it remains to be seen how the market will receive Mazda's EVs when other automakers like GM and Volkswagen are switching to dedicated EV architectures for their EVs. The report also states that Mazda's future EVs will be produced at its plant in Hofu, in western Japan's Yamaguchi prefecture. The facility can produce gasoline, hybrid, and electric cars on the same line, which is good for costs as well.
