From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mazda Xedos was a range of executive cars launched by Japanese manufacturer Mazda in 1992.
The original model was the Mazda Xedos 6, which was similar in size and in engine to the BMW 3 Series. Xedos 6 has 2 types of engines - 24 valve V6 @ 144hp named KF and 16 valve L4 @ 107hp named B6. In 1994 Xedos Mazda renewed the Xedos 6 model with a little difference in engine ecological standarts and body exterior. The Xedos 6 was known as the Eunos 500 in Japan. This vehicle was not sold in the USA. Total quantity of manufacturd Xedos 6 and Eunos 500 is 72101.
By 1994, there was a larger model called the Mazda Xedos 9, which was of a similar size to the BMW 5 Series. The Xedos 9 was known as the Eunos 800 in Japan, and the Mazda Millenia in the USA.
Unfortunately for Mazda, neither versions of the Xedos were popular, and a facelift in 1998 did little to improve matters, and production ceased in 2000.
