Is Mazda warming up to the idea of reintroducing performance-focused MPS or Mazdaspeed models? Quite possibly.

While Mazda President and CEO Masamichi Kogai told us at last year’s LA Auto Show that an MPS revival was not part of the upcoming product plan, the company’s Director and Senior Managing Executive Officer Yuji Nakamine was a little more open-minded.

Speaking to the media at the opening of Mazda Australia’s new headquarters in Melbourne, Nakamine said that while MPS-badged models have yet to make it into Mazda’s product pipeline, the company hasn’t completely turned its back on the idea.

“I receive this question a lot,” Nakamine said. "I know many people are excited about MPS.”

“We are trying to upgrade the SkyActiv technologies for future products and we are clearly focusing on that one. But I don’t reject the possibility of MPS in the future.“
