LOVE DRIVING, LOVE THE WORLD AROUND YOU

A love of driving and a love of the Earth can—and indeed must—be harmonious. To ensure a long and happy relationship between cars, people, and our precious planet, Mazda is focused on developing the entire lifecycle of its vehicles in an environmentally friendly manner. As Mazda introduces new sustainable technologies, it carefully considers the manufacture, usage, and the end-of-life recycling of its cars to minimize the environmental impact, so you can love driving and love the world around you.

OUR COMMITMENT TO PLANET EARTH

BY 2050, MAZDA WILL ACHIEVE CARBON NEUTRALITY DURING THE ENTIRE LIFE CYCLE OF ITS VEHICLES AND THE ENTIRE SUPPLY CHAIN.

LIFE CYCLE PERSPECTIVE


REDUCING EMISSIONS FROM
MANUFACTURING


Mazda takes responsibility for the emissions produced by its cars, not just when they’re being driven, but also when they are made and when they reach the end of their use. To reduce the CO₂ emissions during the entire life of the vehicle, Mazda uses a Life Cycle Assessment, which allows it to pinpoint areas that can reduce the environmental burden of car manufacture, delivery, use, and recycling.

Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and Well-to-Wheel

REDUCE CO₂ EMISSION FROM VEHICLES

BY 2030, MAZDA AIMS TO REDUCE
CORPORATE Well-to-Wheel CO₂ EMISSIONS
TO 50% COMPARED TO OF 2010 LEVELS.

MAZDA’S JOURNEY TO 2030

Mazda offers a variety of environment-conscious powertrains according to local and national conditions.

Multi-solutions approach

By 2030, 100% of Mazda products will be electrified and pure-electric vehicles will account for 25 to 40% of those.

REDUCE CO₂ EMISSION FROM FACTORIES

Mazda is striving to make its factories worldwide carbon neutral by 2035. 

To achieve carbon neutrality (CN) in Mazda factories around the globe by 2035, Mazda is advancing initiatives in “energy conservation,” “shift to renewable energies,” and “CN fuel implementation.” 

THE ROAD TO ZERO

Mazda’s life cycle assessment has a zero target: net zero CO₂ emissions. Here are examples of the innovative and sustainable initiatives Mazda is making on its road to zero. 

Aerodynamic Design Achieving both Beauty and Environmental Considerations

Aerodynamic design that achieves both CO₂ emissions reduction and beautiful styling.

Aqua-tech Paint System Achieving both Beauty and Environmental Considerations

Aqua-tech paint receiving high evaluations from both an environmental protection and a high-quality finish perspective. 

Logistics

The “Milk Run System” significantly reduced CO₂ emissions through efficient transportation across the entire supply chain.

Sustainable Materials (Resource Circulation)

Sustainable materials that contribute to design, functionality, and reducing environmental impact, providing beauty and comfort.

CN Energy (Utilization in Factories)

Toward CN across the entire supply chain. Together with partners, Mazda promotes the production and use of CN energy.

CN Energy (Challenges with Internal Combustion Engines)

Challenging the CN of internal combustion engines through algal genome editing and the adsorption/resource-utilization of exhaust gases (CO₂).
