Mazda began selling vehicles in Taiwan as far back as 1959 and, since 1998, all sales-related activities have been carried out by Ford Distribution Taiwan (FDTL) – reflecting the now all-but-severed close ties – including Asian market model sharing – between the two automakers over several decades.

MMT will take over FDTL’s sales network and assume control of all sales-related activities.

However, despite the change, long standing contract assembler Ford Lio Ho Motor (FLH) will continue to build the 3 (Axela in Japan) and 5 (Premacy) in Taiwan for Mazda.
