INFORMATION
Celebrating Mazda's 100th Anniversary on Gran Turismo Sport with the RX-VISION GT3 CONCEPT and two Special Competitions!
22/05/2020

The RX-VISION GT3 CONCEPT, Mazda’s dream rotary engine racing machine, is finally coming to 'Gran Turismo Sport' on Friday 22 May. Mazda is celebrating its centennial anniversary this year since its establishment back in 20 January 1920.

From Friday 22 May, we will be hosting 2 special competitions commemorating Mazda’s centennial anniversary and the release of the RX-VISION GT3 CONCEPT; the 'RX-VISION GT3 CONCEPT Time Trial Challenge', and the 'RX-VISION GT3 CONCEPT Livery Design Contest.'

■ MAZDA RX-VISION GT3 CONCEPT

Mazda's dream rotary racing machine

The MAZDA RX-VISION is a concept car announced at the Tokyo Motor Show 2015. Based on Mazda’s 'Kodo - Soul of Motion' design theme, it was created as a challenge to design the most beautiful FR sports car that Mazda could come up with. This car is also powered by the next generation rotary engine 'SKYACTIV-R', a dream that Mazda wants to bring to life in the future.

Overcoming numerous technical difficulties, Mazda successfully introduced a commercial rotary engine through the Cosmo Sport back in 1967. Thereafter as the only manufacturer to mass produce rotary engines, they worked to improve output, fuel economy, and durability, and even took the overall victory in the 1991 Le Mans 24 Hour Endurance Race in their 787B.

The MAZDA RX-VISION GT3 CONCEPT expresses the design beauty of the base car in the form of a more aggressive race car. To meet the performance requirements of the Gr. 3 class, the design draws from the 787B engine concept, with a 4 rotor engine brought back to life using SKYACTIV technology. This new rotary engine is mounted in a lightweight body to achieve unprecedented performance.
