Launched in 2015, the CX-3 was developed with the ambition of “creating the new standard for the next generation.” The design aimed to express a presence that transcends conventional categories, pursuing the essence of beauty and achieving proportions with the presence of a show car, crafted with uncompromising attention to detail.
In this special event, Koji Noma, the program manager at the time, and Yoichi Matsuda, the chief designer, will share the unique appeal of the CX-3.
We are currently accepting questions and topic requests in advance.
