Known for its compact dimensions and gullwing doors, the Az-1 combined sporty design with efficient performance. It featured a mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout, powered by a small turbocharged engine, making it an iconic collector's item. Despite its limited production run, the Mazda Az-1 remains celebrated for its distinct style and automotive innovation within the kei car segment.
