Outlook: Global Sales Surge Offsets Regional Soft Spots
Despite a 5.4% drop in export volume and continued weakness in European and Chinese markets, Mazda ended FY2024–25 on a strong note with 14% global sales growth in March and 5% full-year growth. The company’s strategic product focus on CX-5, CX-90, CX-30, and surging U.S. market performance is driving a return to upward momentum.
