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.
LIFE CYCLE PERSPECTIVE
It is our ongoing mission to reduce the environmental impact of Mazda vehicles at every phase of their life. We use a Life Cycle Assessment to measure, and subsequently reduce the emissions from our supply chain, factories, transportation, the vehicles themselves, and end-of-life programs.
MAZDA’S APPROACH
REDUCING REAL-WORLD EMISSIONS FROM MAZDA VEHICLES
The right car in the right place
There is more to reducing emissions than simply switching over to battery electric vehicles. If the electrical energy used to charge these cars is not produced sustainably then the emissions are merely moved to power stations.
That’s why Mazda offers a multi-solution approach, providing a range of efficient internal combustion, hybrid,plug-in hybrid, and electric cars to suit customers’ needs and the power-generation situations across the world.
Choosing the Mazda that is best for you and the earth depends on where and how you live. Mazda has adopted a multi-solution approach to provide the right vehicle in the right place. If the electricity generated in your region is low-emission, then a battery electric car may well make sense. However, if where you live relies largely on fossil fuels to generate electricity then charging an electric car will still create carbon emissions. In that case, a fuel-efficient combustion-powered or hybrid vehicle may well be a better choice.
