Notes
- Model code: English and Japanese Wikipedia give KM (Japanese type KMYSDP); German Wikipedia gives KI.
- Wheelbase increase: Mazda Australia states 115 mm (consistent with 2,815 mm vs 2,700 mm); English Wikipedia says 75 mm. Mazda's figure is used.
- US torque: the July 2025 US reveal release says 185 lb-ft, the January 2026 US pricing release 186 lb-ft; the later figure is recorded. Mazda Australia's 132 kW / 242 Nm are labelled development targets. Outputs differ by market (Mazda: 'Performance values vary by market').
- A Skyactiv-Z hybrid is announced for 2027 (Mazda) and is not recorded yet. US sales were announced for early 2026 but no exact US sales date was found.
- Mazda gives length/width/height only (EU and AU records); the 2,815 mm wheelbase is from Japanese Wikipedia (record d3).
