If you thought the B2600 load capacity was legendary, just wait until you see what Mazda can offer you today!

The Mazda B2600 load capacity was one aspect of a very special vehicle that helped to win over the hearts of more drivers in Australia than one might have thought possible. Even now, years later, the number of former and current owners who foster nothing but great memories from the plucky little utes performance is quite surprising. Want to know what else is surprising in the automotive world right now too? The performance gains that the Mazda brand has made in quite literally every possible category are the stuff dreams are made of for those with a passion for motoring and a taste for something new and exciting. Putting more joy and excitement into their vehicles than the competition has always been a focus of this premier brand from the land of the rising sun though, thanks to their strict adherence to the iconic “zoom-zoom” design philosophy and the implicit belief that an automobile should be more than just the sum of its parts.

Let’s take today’s Mazda MX-5 as a modern example of what drivers can expect when sliding in behind the wheel of this class leading coupe. Almost everyone loves the idea of a soft top convertible - the ability to retract the top and feel the wind in your hair and the warmth of the sun on a winding road while enjoying the drive with nary a care in the world. Yes, almost everyone loves that idealized version of what owning a convertible is all about. In reality, many buyers are intimidated by some of the negatively perceived issues that traditionally have been associated with a soft top including things like road noise, leaky weather stripping seals, and the work required to keep the cloth in top shape. While all of these concerns have been eliminated from modern convertibles like the MX-5, Mazda respected their customer’s input, and realized that something had to be done.

Car buyers were stunned when the new Mazda MX-5 models debuted not only with their traditional soft top, but with a fully retractable hardtop option so that everyone could get in on the fun of owning a convertible - all excuses completely eliminated. Great advancements in automotive technology like the MX-5 hardtop are simply the continuation of the customer centered philosophy that produced the B2600, a little truck with a personality far larger than its physical size, so many years ago. Isn’t it time that you visited your local factory authorized Mazda dealership today to see what you’ve been missing out on? The reality is that you’re only one stress free test drive from one of the best vehicle purchases you could make, and just think of the adventures you’ll have in a new Mazda out on the open road!
