Autozam AZ-1

Autozam AZ-1 (code: PG6SA)

Red Autozam AZ-1 at Arkhangelskoye Estate (Moscow Region, Russia)

The Autozam AZ-1 is a sports-kei car which was manufactured by Mazda from October 1992 to October 1994 and sold under its Autozam brand. Suzuki provided the engine as well as the inspiration for the design. It is a two-seater kei car with a rear mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout and gullwing doors.

Power came from the same Suzuki-sourced 657 cc turbocharged engine used by the Suzuki Alto that produced 64 HP (47 kW) at 6,500 rpm and 85 N⋅m (63 lb⋅ft) at 4,000 rpm. The top speed was electronically governed to be 87 mph (140 km/h), with theoretical top speeds without the governor being approximately 110 mph (177 km/h).

Suzuki later produced its own badge engineered version named the Suzuki Cara (PG6SS).
