Mazda began selling completely built-up vehicles (Mazda2, Mazda3, Mazda6, and CX-9 from Japan, BT-50 from Thailand) through Vina Mazda in March 2011.
Mazda announced its decision to begin local assembly of the Mazda2 in Vietnam in August. The move is part of Mazda’s plan to accelerate business growth in emerging markets under its Framework for Medium- and Long-Term Initiatives. Mazda expects the Mazda2 to become one of its mainstay products in the Vietnamese market and plans to produce approximately 2,000 units per year.
