Mazda Roadpacer AP
Mazda Roadpacer AP (1975) at the Mazda Classic - Automobil Museum Frey in Augsburg, Germany.
The Roadpacer was Mazda's unique attempt to enter the Japanese market of luxury sedans, rivaling the Toyota Century or Nissan President. The car was not developed by Mazda but an Australian Holden Premier with a Mazda 13B Wankel engine: engineless Holdens were shipped to Japan, where they were fitted with engines and transmissions and recieved luxurious equipment. However, sales were slow and only around 800 units sold, few of which remain today.
Mazda Roadpacer AP (1975-1977)
1.308 litre two-disc Wankel engine
100 kW
Vmax: 166 km/h
