- Calendar Year Sales up 8.5 Percent -

IRVINE, Calif., July 3 -- Mazda North American Operations (MNAO) today reported its best June since 2004 with U.S. sales of 25,761, accounting for an 8.6 percent increase versus the same period last year. Year-to-date sales of 152,683 are up 8.5 percent year-over-year.

Mazda Motor de Mexico (MMdM) continues its string of hot sales with 1,224 vehicles sold, more than double June 2006. On a year-to-date basis, MMdM reported 7,503 total sales. Due to yesterday's Canadian holiday, Mazda Canada, Inc. will report sales on July 4th.

"In spite of our small size, we've managed to make solid sales gains while bucking the trend our much larger competitors have been following toward ever deeper incentives," said Jim O'Sullivan, president and CEO of MNAO.

Mazda's incentive spending is one of the lowest in the industry. With no customer cash and only minimal lease and finance support, MAZDA3 celebrated its best-ever June since its 2003 launch with sales of 11,341 units, up 20 percent versus last year. In its fourth year of production, the MAZDA3 remains a sales homerun for the company. Year-to-date, MAZDA3 sales are up 20.7 percent.

Mazda's CX-7 continues strong in the highly competitive crossover SUV segment as it reported 4,103 units sold. Combined with the three-row, seven-passenger CX-9 (itself selling 1,955 units in June), year-to-date sales for Mazda's crossover SUVs total nearly 30,000 units.

With convertible driving season here, the MX-5 Miata reported its best June since 2002 with sales of 1,608 units, up 1.5 percent year-over-year. Available as both a soft-top and Power Retractable Hard Top model, the MX-5 Miata is the best-selling two-seat roadster of all time, with more than 850,000 sold since its 1989 launch.

Headquartered in Irvine, Calif., Mazda North American Operations oversees the sales, marketing, parts and customer service support of Mazda vehicles in the United States, Canada, Mexico and Puerto Rico through nearly 900 dealers. Operations in Canada are managed by Mazda Canada, Inc., located in Ontario, Canada, and in Mexico by Mazda Motor de Mexico in Mexico City.
