Mazda is celebrating its 100th anniversary with a Special Edition series that will be available across its model range, including the MX-5 Roadster, MX-5 Roadster RF, Mazda2, Mazda3, Mazda6, CX-3, CX-30, CX-5 and CX-8. They have just gone of sale in Japan and will be available to order until the end of March 2021.

The white and burgundy two-tone color combination is a tribute to Mazda’s first four-wheel vehicle, the 1960 R360 Coupe. Form its start of business in 1920 until 1960, Mazda focused on the manufacture of three-wheel passenger and delivery vehicles. The R360 Coupe had seating for four and was available with either a 4 speed manual or 2 speed automatic transmission. Its 356cc air-cooled 16 hp engine could propel the 800 pound coupe to a top speed of just over 50 mph/80 km/h.
