Mazda Roadpacer AP The Mazda Roadpacer AP (Anti Pollution) is a full-size sedan that was sold by Mazda in Japan between 1975 and 1977, although the last car was not sold until 1979. It was based on the Australian Holden HJ and HX series Premier. Premiers were shipped to Japan without engines, and Mazda fitted a 1.3-liter "13B" Wankel engine into the bay. Although the engine produced 100 kW and 138 Nm of torque, the Roadpacer performed rather poorly as it weighed 1575 kg . The Roadpacer was introduced to compete with large Japanese flagship sedans Toyota Century, Nissan President, Isuzu Statesman de Ville, and the Mitsubishi Debonair.
Kei car Kei" car, K-car, or kei jidōsha" (軽自動車 , lit. "light automobile") (pronounced ] ), is a Japanese category of small vehicles, including passenger cars (kei cars or kei-class cars), microvans, and pickup trucks ("kei" trucks or "kei"-class trucks). They are designed to comply with Japanese government tax and insurance regulations, and in most rural areas are exempted from the requirement to certify that adequate parking is available for the vehicle. This especially advantaged class of cars was developed to popularize motorization in the postwar era. While successful in Japan, the genre is generally too specialized and too small to be profitable in export markets.
