During 2007, Mazda produced almost 1.3 million vehicles for global sales.
Beginning in the 1960s, Mazda put a major engineering effort into development of the Wankel rotary engine as a way of differentiating themselves from other Japanese auto companies. Beginning with the limited-production Cosmo Sport of 1967 and continuing to the present day with the RX-8, Mazda has become the sole manufacturer of Wankel-type engines.
Mazda helped Ford develop the 1991 Explorer, which Mazda sold as the 2-door Mazda Navajo from 1991 through 1994. Ironically, Mazda's version was unsuccessful, while the Ford, which was available from the start as a 4-door or 2-door model, instantly became the best selling sport-utility vehicle in the United States. The Explorer kept that title for over a decade. Mazda has used Ford's Ranger pickup as the basis for its North American-market B-Series trucks, starting in 1994 and continuing through to the present.
