Founded in Japan and formerly known as Toyo Cork Kogyo Co. Ltd, Mazda has become well known as being the only current manufacturer of the Wankel Rotary Engine as well as the only non-European/American company to win a Le Mans 24hr Race. They won with the Mazda 787B, a Rotary powered monster.
Mazda rotaries cannot be talked about without mention of the RX-7 and more recent RX-8. Both cars have loyal owners and fans who will defend the rotary and its greatness to the end of the world. Despite the rotary engine being no longer in production vehicles Mazda has been putting in new developments with their SkyActive technology with other great looking sporty road machines that are also very practical.
