This milestone was achieved in the 10 years and three months since production began in July 1996 at Ujina Plant No. 1 located near the automaker’s headquarters in Hiroshima.
The Demio was first launched in August 1996 and replaced by a second generation model in August 2002. That model is also built for Europe in a Ford plant in Spain.
Last August, the Demio marked its 10th anniversary on the Japanese market. In that month the model ranked eighth for single model sales with a volume of 4,672 units (according to the Japan Automobile Dealers Association), becoming one of Mazda’s longest selling products.
