(June 2010) Mazda Familia Manufacturer Mazda Production 1964–2003 Successor Mazda Axela Class Small family car Subcompact (1964–1994) Compact (1995–2003) The Mazda Familia was a small family car or compact car manufactured by Mazda between 1964 and 2003 and marketed in several body styles and under numerous other brands and nameplates. Other nameplates for the Familia included Mazda 1000, 1200, and 1300, 800, 808, and 818. In North America, nameplates included GLC, 323 and Protegé. In South Africa, it was marketed as the Étude. In Colombia the 8th generation was called Allegro. The Familia was also rebranded as the Ford Laser and Meteor in Asia, Australasia some Latin American countries and (from 1991) as the Ford Escort and Mercury Tracer in North America. Familias were manufactured in Hiroshima, Japan as well as Taiwan, Malaysia, South Africa, Colombia and New Zealand. The Familia line was replaced by the Mazda Axela in 2004.

To achieve this goal, they began by building an extremely cheap Kei car, the R360 in 1960, planning on introducing gradually larger and pricier cars as the Japanese customers became able to afford them. As a preview, testing the waters, a larger "Mazda 700" prototype was shown at the 8th Tokyo Motor Show in 1961, and formed the basis for the upcoming Mazda Familia. Meanwhile, the slightly more upmarket Mazda Carol appeared in 1962.[1] Familia 800 Van The first production Familia, styled by a young Giorgetto Giugiaro while working at Carrozzeria Bertone, appeared in October 1963. In line with Mazda's policy of only gradually approaching the production of private cars (a luxury in Japan at the time), the first Familia was initially only available as a commercial two-door wagon called the Familia Van. The van was joined in April 1964 by a plusher Familia Wagon, in October by a 4-door sedan, and in November by a two-door sedan. The "Flat Deck" design of the sedan versions was reportedly inspired by the Chevrolet Corvair.[2] Private car versions received foglights in the grille as well as more chrome trim. The Familia was sold in other markets as the 800. Power was courtesy of a 782 cc, "SA" four-stroke aluminum inline-four engine, also known as the "White Engine". There was also a pickup version available from November 1964.[3] An all new Familia 1000 Coupé arrived in November 1965, with a 985 cc SOHC "PC" engine. Around the same time, the 800 engine was upgraded, adding three extra horsepower. After an onslaught of new 1 liter vehicles from Mazda's competitors, another 987 cc OHV engine (PB) appeared in January 1967, powering new 1000 Sedan and Van versions.[4] The 1 liter sedans and vans are quickly recognizable by their broader, rounded-off rectangular headlights. Production continued until November 1967, though Van versions continued until replaced in February 1968. Around 400,000 of the first Familia were built, 130,473 of which were sedans and coupés.[5] Around 10,000 of the first generation Familia were exported, mainly to Australia and Oceania.[2] Mazda Familia 800 4-dr sedan (SSA, 1966) Mazda Familia 800 Pickup (1967) [edit] Data Primary sources are listed at the head of each column, information sourced elsewhere is referenced directly in the relevant cells.

It was sold as the Mazda 1000 in some markets. It also formed the basis for the Mazda R100 rotary car. A larger 1169 cc I4 engined version came along later, becoming the Mazda 1200 for export. In this form, the car was first exhibited in Europe at the 1968 Paris Motor Show in the Autumn/Fall of that year.[9] The 1970 Familia featured a 1.3 L TC engine and new styling. It was exported as the Mazda 1300.

The 1971 version was the first piston-powered Familia sold in the United States and arrived alongside its rotary R100 in 2- and 4-door forms. It was replaced by the 808 (Grand Familia) the next year. The name returned for 1973 as the base-model economy Mazda. The company focused on performance for two more years, dropping the economy car, then returned with the Mizer in 1976.

There was a choice of hatchbacks and station wagon bodies, both available with a 3 or 5-door bodystyle. Three Mazda engines were on offer, the 985 cc PC, 1,272 cc TC, or 1,415 cc UC. It shared many parts with the older Mazda Grand Familia. This was the first appearance of the 323 name. In South Africa a 1,600 cc model was available – however this model did not have a Mazda engine, unlike the rest of the range. In order to satisfy that country's local content regulations, a Mitsubishi Saturn 1.6 litre unit was used. The range was replaced in 1980, however the station wagon models continued in production until 1986. In 1981 a facelift was given to the wagon range, to give a front end treatment similar to Mazda's front-wheel drive 323/Familia range. It was available in several body variants: Five-door four-seat hatch. Three-door four-seat hatch. Five-door four-seat station wagon. Three-door four-seat station wagon. Three-door two-seat van with an extended roof profile. Several of these were available in several trim levels. Engines: 1.0 L PC, 45 hp DIN (33 kW) / 51 ft·lbf (69 N·m) – export only 1.3 L TC (1977.01–1978) 60 hp DIN (44 kW) / 72 PS (53 kW) in Japan[11] 1.4 L UC (1978.03–1980) 83 PS (61 kW) in Japan[11] Later, a five-speed manual gearbox was introduced as an alternative to the original four-speed manual gearbox. At the same time the original 7 in (17.8 cm) round sealed beam headlights were replaced with square sealed beam units on all models except the van, together with a general styling and mechanical upgrade. A three-speed automatic gearbox was also available throughout the model run. Late Mazda 323 Wagon (UK) When the next generation front-wheel-drive Familia/323/GLC models were released in 1980, the wagon and van models continued unchanged, due to Mazda not developing wagon models for the newer range. A facelift however was given to the wagons in 1981, which gave the models the front clip (albeit with different bumpers) of the front-wheel-drive models. Production of the wagons continued to 1986, when a new front-wheel-drive model was introduced. For the United States, the GLC, advertised as the Great Little Car, was only offered with one engine at a time. The new GLC overlapped with the old-style Mizer for part of 1977 and was produced through 1980 before being replaced by the next-generation GLC. The marketing campaign in the USA had the words "Great Little Car" set to the tune of Spanish Flea. In Indonesia the Familia was marketed by Indomobil Group as Mazda MR90 (hatchback) between 1990 and 1992, Baby Boomers (hatchback) between 1992 and 1994, and Vantrend (station wagon) between 1993 and 1997. The versions built by Indomobil used the Mazda 626 GC platform, later versions had different headlights and bumpers. Only the UC 1.4 engine and 5 speed transmission were offered. The car's low price helped make up for it's being outmoded. [edit] Fourth generation (BD; 1980–1984) Fourth generation (BD) Also called Mazda 323 Mazda GLC Production 1980–1984 1984–1986 (Colombia) Assembly Hiroshima, Japan Hofu, Japan Bogotá, Colombia Body style(s) 3-door hatchback 4-door sedan 5-door hatchback Layout FF layout Engine(s) 1.1 L E1 I4 1.3 L E3 I4 1.5 L E5 I4 Related Ford Laser Ford Meteor Mazda 323 sedan 1980–1982 Mazda 323 (BD) 5-door hatchback (Australia) The 1980 BD Familia was entirely new – it was Mazda's first front-engine, front wheel drive subcompact car. It was available as a hatchback and sedan. It had been developed with some input from Ford, and had a twin called the Ford Laser (and Ford Meteor, for its four-door model in Australia). The all new Mazda E engine-series was developed expressly for the BD and was offered in three different displacements. The smallest 1.1 liter E1 unit was reserved for certain export markets where the tax structures suited it. Chassis codes were BD1011/BD1031/BD1051 depending on the engine installed. Engines: 1.1 L (1,071 cc) E1, 1 barrel, 55 hp (40 kW)/58 ft·lbf (79 N·m) 1.3 L (1,296 cc) E3, 2 barrel, 68 hp (50 kW)/70 ft·lbf (95 N·m) 1.5 L (1,490 cc) E5, 2 barrel, 75 hp (55 kW)/85 ft·lbf (116 N·m) 1.5 L (1,490 cc) E5S, 2x2 barrel, 85 hp (63 kW)/88 ft·lbf (120 N·m) For the Japanese market 2 other top end models were offered, the 2-door Familia XGI with a 1500 cc single cam, multi point fuel injected engine and an XGI Turbo R with a turbo added in. Its twin the Ford Laser S were also offered with the same specifications but in limited numbers. This particular Familia was a strong comeback for Mazda in the Japanese market, even outselling the Toyota Corolla on several occasions. The 1980 Familia/323 was the first front-engine, front-wheel drive vehicle from Mazda since the rare R130. A station wagon version, which was simply a facelifted version of the previous rear-drive model, was sold in parallel. The 323 was Wheels magazine's Car of the Year for 1980. It was also the only front-wheel drive Mazda vehicle with the GLC name. The equivalent American GLC appeared in 1981. It was only offered with a single engine (the 2 barrel 1.5 L) and lasted through 1985, after which it was replaced by the next-generation Mazda 323 and the GLC nameplate was retired.

It was available as a hatchback or sedan only for the first year, a wagon being added in November 1985. As for its predecessor, the '85 Familia spawned a Ford Laser twin sold in the Asia-Pacific. The Laser sedan and wagon were nearly identical to the Familia but with a Ford grille. By contrast the Laser hatchback model, which was sold in the US as the Mercury Tracer used completely different panels from the Familia's. This generation was sold through the 1989 model year in the United States. The wagon continued alongside the succeeding generation in most markets until 1994/95, with a new grille and lights. The model remained in production in South Africa, as an entry-level model, also being sold as the Ford Tonic until 2003. A locally designed pick-up based on the Familia front end, called the Rustler was also produced, and sold as the Ford Bantam. From 1991 to 1994 Samcor also produced and sold the 323 with the 2.0L 16-valve DOHC FE engine from the Mazda 626 and badged it 200i. Along with the 2.0L 16-valve DOHC engine there were upgrades to the suspension and braking system. In 1991, the South African-made model was exported to the United Kingdom as the Sao Penza and fitted with a 1.3L fuel injected engine. This model was also sold in Australia between 1989 and 1991 with minor changes, the most noticeable one being the front indicators having a clear color rather than the normal amber. These models where labeled BF as opposed to the next generation's BG. A rare cabriolet version was also produced in both Mazda 323 and Ford Laser (323 panels from firewall back) forms. This was not a conversion, as it was actually a factory built model designed to be a cabriolet from the outset.

The new 5-door fastback version was called the Familia Astina at home and was sold as the 323F or 323 Astina elsewhere. The BF wagon (originally introduced in 1985) was carried over in facelifted form. The 1989/1990 BG Familia was available in hatchback or sedan formats, with front- or four-wheel drive and a 1.3 L, 1.5 L, 1.6 L, or 1.8 L gas or 1.7 L diesel engine. In North America, the 323 sedan became the Protegé, while the 323 hatchback kept its name. 1991-1994 Mazda 323 (BG) sedan (Australia) The GT model, only sold in Canada in 1990, 1991 and 1993, came with the 1.8 BP engine also found on the 1991–94 Ford Escort GT. It borrowed the interior from the GTX model, and had all factory options including a rear trunk spoiler not available in the US. Ford also had a twin called the Laser in the Asian Pacific for this generation, but sold it in the United States as the Escort. It no longer resembled the Mazda versions externally. The Kia Sephia also used the hardware of this generation Familia. In Japan, the 5-door hatchback, featuring a distinct front end with pop-up headlights, was sold as the Mazda Familia Astina and (Japanese: Eunos 100). Trim lines in Japan included Clair, Interplay, Supreme, "Pepper", and GT-X. In Europe, this model variant was badged as Mazda 323F. It was available with the 1.6 or the 16-valve 1.8-litre engines. In America, the LX version of the Protegé became known for its interior room (for its class), sporty handling, and high revving 125 horsepower (93 kW) engine.[citation needed] LX models also had 14-inch (360 mm) wheels, front and rear disc brakes, and dual stabilizer bars. In New Zealand, all BG models that were manufactured in New Zealand came with glass headlights instead of plastic, and a 240 km/h speedo. Production of the 1994 model ended on May 24, 1994.

But the Infini was also equipped with some notable upgrades such as a viscous limited slip differential, tightened suspension package, and bonnet/headlight style similar to the 323 hatchbacks, which would not be seen again on a sedan models until 1994 when all Familia sedan models received similar face lifts. The Infini came only in dark green color with unique Infini trim grille, rear spoiler, "lightweight" carpet, without sound deadener, and with Infini (∞) logos on horn button, front grille, wheel caps & bootlid. There were also unique factory front clear indicators, a Momo steering wheel, BBS 15" rims, suede interior with GTX style seat trim, leather gearboot & knob, front & rear strut braces, 22mm sway bars front & rear, rear tie bar, 180kmh speedo & 7100rpm redline tachometer, and 4 wheel disc brakes 250mm+ all 4 corners. Only limited numbers of the Infini were produced, numbering around 1,000. [edit] Familia GTR and GT-Ae The JDM GTX model featured four wheel drive, viscous limited slip differentials and a turbocharged 1.8 L BP engine. In the U.S. the Protegé came with a 1.8 L non-turbo, with the 4WD. The rare JDM GT-R rally version was added in 1992, featuring a number of performance enhancements over the GTX model: a stronger gearbox (G5M-R), sodium filled exhaust valve stems, an aggressive front bumper, grill and bonnet vents, updated rear bumper, wheel flares, stiffer suspension and anti-roll bars with thicker cross members, stronger engine internals, larger IHI RHF6CB VJ-23 roller-bearing turbo, and homologated five stud wheel hubs with larger brakes. The interior was all leather and suede and had the option of replacing the cupholder with a 3 gauge cluster. The GTR has these engine and management benefits over a stock GTX: stronger connecting rods and pistons, bigger oil squirters, larger nose crank, bigger oil cooler, sodium filled valves, inlet manifold is baffled, bigger injectors (from 330cc(black) to 440cc(orange)), removed boost cut, front mounted intercooler, VJ23 turbo ball bearing watercooled turbocharger. The GTR has 156 kW while the GTX has 135 kW. 300 special version GT-R's were produced known as GT-Ae's. These shared the power output of the GT-R, but were 30 kg lighter, fitted with closer ratio gearboxes, and featured a larger top spoiler with a gap between the hatch and the spoiler to direct air to the new lower spoiler. To counter the weight of the extra spoiler and larger top spoiler, options for ABS, A/C, power mirrors, power windows, power locks, sunroof were removed. Instead of using the GTR's leather interior, Mazda opted for the lighter cloth interior of its younger brother, the GTX. 1990–1992 Mazda Protegé sedan (US) 1990–1992 Mazda 323 hatchback (US) 1991–1994 Mazda 323 (BG Series 2) Astina 5-door hatchback (Australia) [edit] Seventh generation (BH; 1994–1998) Seventh generation (BH) Also called Mazda 323 Mazda Allegro Mazda Protegé Mazda Étude Production 1994–1998, 1995–1999 in Colombia Assembly Hiroshima, Japan Hofu, Japan Bogotá, Colombia Pretoria, South Africa Body style(s) 3-door hatchback (Neo) 4-door sedan (Protegé/Familia) 4-door hardtop sedan (Lantis) 5-door hatchback (Lantis/Astina) Layout FF layout Engine(s) 1.3 L B3 I4 1.5 L Z5 I4 1.5 L B5 I4 1.8 L BP I4 1.7 L 4EE1 I4 Diesel Transmission(s) 4-speed F-4EAT automatic 5-speed manual Wheelbase Hatchback: 2450 mm (96.5 in) 1997–98 Sedan: 2607 mm (102.6 in) Length Hatchback: 4155 mm (163.6 in) 1997–98 Sedan: 4440 mm (174.8 in) 1995–96 Sedan: 4435 mm (174.6 in) Width 1997–98 Sedan: 1710 mm (67.3 in) 1995–96 Sedan: 1694 mm (66.7 in) Hatchback: 1670 mm (65.7 in) Height 1995–96 ES Sedan: 1381 mm (54.4 in) 1997–98 Sedan: 1420 mm (55.9 in) 1995–96 Sedan: 1386 mm (54.6 in) Hatchback: 1380 mm (54.3 in) Related Mazda 323F/Lantis/Allegro Ford Laser Ford Escort Mercury Tracer 1998 Mazda Protegé LX (US) 1996–99 Mazda Familia Wagon (rebadged Nissan Sunny California) The BH model was released for the Japanese Domestic Market in 1994 with both front wheel drive and all wheel drive. Production of this generation started on August 8, 1994, and ceased on June 18, 1998. However, Japan did see an unusual model with this generation in 1994, with the cancellation of the 1985-generation station wagon. The Mazda Familia Van offered after this year was a rebadged Nissan Wingroad/Sunny California, which was essentially the station wagon version of the Nissan Sunny.[14] This generation of Familia grew considerably, with the four-door sedan's wheelbase only a few millimetres short of the then-current Toyota Camry, a mid-size car. The rare North American ES model came with the Miata's 1.8-liter twin-cam engine (though the internals were not the same), 4-wheel disc brakes, and dual stabilizer bars. The same car went on sale in Australia in second half of 1994. with fully featured BP-ZE engine and is very common model. The Protege becomes the "Compact car" for the 1995 model year in North America.

[edit] Familia Neo 1995 Mazda 323 (Canada) The Familia Neo started production for the Japanese domestic market in 1994. Ford released a rebadged version which was mechanically the same although different bumpers, headlights and bonnet were fitted, badged as the Ford Laser Lynx in Japan and Australia. This model was only available as the Ford Laser-Lynx in the Australian market, as Mazda already had the 323 Astina Hatch filling the gap for a hatchback in the Mazda range. Oddly enough to contradict this, Mazda Australia also offered two 323 sedans, the Astina/Lantis hardtop and the 323 Protegé until production of both models ceased in 1998. This was released new in New Zealand as the Mazda Familia Neo. It featured a rear hatch with a divided glass, much like the Honda CR-X. Aesthetically the Familia Neo was very close in looks to a Mazda Lantis/323F and equated to a 2-door version and also shared the Lantis suspension. The top spec Mazda Neo was fitted with a DOHC 1800 cc BP engine which produced around 100 kW (140 PS), this was the same engine fitted to the base model Mazda Lantis. It was also sold for a single year (1995) in Canada as 323 Neo GS. In Europe it was named Mazda 323C (for coupé) and it was equipped with 1.3 L SOHC (75 PS), 1.5 L DOHC 16V (88 PS), and 1.8 L DOHC 16V (115 PS) engine. [edit] Lantis Main article: Mazda Lantis 1997 Mazda 323 (BA Series 3) Astina 5-door hatchback (Australia) A five door hatchback and four door sedan, both featuring pillarless doors and distinct sheetmetal from other 323s was sold in Japan as the Mazda Lantis, in Australia and South Africa as the Mazda 323 Astina, in Colombia as the Mazda Allegro and in Europe as the Mazda 323F. They were built on platforms distinct from the other 323s. The bodyshape was designed by former Porsche designers. The Lantis was on the CB, a minor update of the CA that underpinned the luxury Mazda Xedos 6 and Eunos 500. The European 323F was designated BA, but was actually almost identical to the CB, and had little to do with other B platforms. These models were sold with the 1.5 L and 1.8 L engines seen in the rest of the 323 range, as well as a 2.0 L V6 shared with the Eunos 500.

Body styles were the sedan, 5-door S-Wagon (sold as the Protegé5 in the United States and Canada, and Astina NU in some Asian countries), 3-door hatchback, and traditional 5-door Wagon. A 4EC automatic transmission and two 5-speed manual transmissions are available. All wheel drive is optional. The 1999 BJ platform was updated with a 4-door sedan or 5-door hatchback chassis based on the larger Mazda 626 and more engine choices. The Japanese Mazda Familia again got all wheel drive as an option. In America, the ES's engine was still of 1.8 liters but was a shrunken version of the 626's engine rather than the Miata's more exciting motor. The rear disc brakes of the ES were downgraded to drums. The Familia Van and Familia Business Wagon were introduced for 2000, and continued to be supplied by Nissan under an OEM deal, based on the Wingroad. The entire line was updated for 2001 with sharper styling, a revised suspension, and a new audio system. A 2.0 L gas engine appeared in 2001 on the Japanese market Sport 20. A tall wagon version of the Familia called the Mazda Premacy was also available, and which was sold in Japan as the Ford Ixion. In 1999, Ford of Japan ceased to market Mazda-based models, and the Ford Laser, along with the Ixion, Telstar and Festiva, was dropped. For the 2001 model year in North America, Mazda introduced the limited-edition Protegé MP3 featuring a new sport-tuned suspension, 17 inch Racing Hart wheels, and a 10 hp (7.5 kW) gain for a total of 140 hp (104 kW), which was achieved through a tuned factory ECU which advances ignition timing and requires Premium Pump Gasoline, cat-back exhaust by Racing Beat, and removal of the Mazda VTCS system which hindered air velocity in the intake manifold. As the name suggests, the MP3 also came from the factory with a complete 450-watt Kenwood powered MP3 stereo with 10-inch (250 mm) powered subwoofer. Only 1500 were produced – 1000 of the blue, and 500 yellows. 2001 also saw Protegés getting a sharper face lift, the ES getting its rear disc brakes back and a stiffer suspension, and the 1.8 L engine growing to 2.0 L in the ES models, and also an option on the LX model, becoming the 2.0LX. All 2001 Protegé LX's with no 2.0 distinction came with the 1.6 L ZM-DE engine offered previously. 2001 saw the introduction of a station wagon version called Protegé5 with the same 2.0 L engine offering 130 hp (127 kW)/135 ft·lbf (180 N·m) this year and a slightly revised interior. In 2002, all Protegés (including the 5) got the 2.0 L engine. In 2003, Mazdaspeed introduced the Mazdaspeed Protegé, an update to the Protegé MP3 that had a 170 hp (127 kW)/160 ft·lbf (217 N·m) turbocharged engine, shared the MP3's full Racing Beat suspension, redesigned 17-inch (430 mm) wheels, larger four-wheel disc brakes, and a Kenwood stereo system that included an amplifier along with a rear-deck mounted 8-inch (200 mm) sub. Mazda then followed with a mid year change dubbed the "2003.5." This model included a different aero-kit, the same 17-inch (430 mm) Racing Beat wheels, but with a darker color, and custom interior pieces. In total, there were only 4,500 Mazdaspeed Protegé models ever produced. (1,750 Black/Orange (2003) and 2,750 Yellow/Titanium/Blue/Silver (2003.5/7)) Also of note in the 2003 model is that the ES model received a tiptronic Automatic transmission as an option, as well as a new wheel design refresh appearing on models with the 15-inch (380 mm) alloy rim option. This was also the last year of production for the Protegé. This generation went into production on September 29, 1998, and the very last model rolled off the assembly line on October 2, 2003. It remains in production in Taiwan, where it is also badged as the Ford Activa, which, unlike the Ford Laser, has no styling changes from the 323, except for the badges. (In Southeast Asia, a version of the last Laser is still assembled in Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines as the Ford Lynx). This generation is also still in production as of 2008, in Taiwan as the Mazda Genki (sold as hatch and sedan and with little or no styling differences to the original 1998 production model), and in some South American countries (Ecuador, Colombia and Venezuela), badged as the Mazda Allegro. Each Allegro keep in the styling of the last generation 323/Protegé/Astina/Familia. In Colombia, production of the Mazda 323 continued well until 2003, built by its local subsidiary, the Compañía Colombiana Automotriz. The 323 remains to this day one of the most successful cars made in the country and many models made across the years can still be seen in the streets of most Colombian and Andean cities.[citation needed] Oddly enough, the "boxy" look that characterized the vehicle during the 1980s and the early 1990s remained until production's end due to the demand of the local market for the car's lines. Chinese company FAW Haima Automobile Co., Ltd. produces a restyled version of 323 called Haima Family. It is equipped with a 1.6 L gasoline engine mated with either a 5-speed manual gearbox or 4-speed automatic gearbox. The Familia was replaced by the new model known as Axela/Mazda3 for 2004. The Axela/Mazda3 comes in both 4-door sedan and 5-door hatchback varieties, with a 2.0 litre engine on the 3i sedan and a 2.3 litre engine on the 3s sedan and the hatchback. It shares a platform with the current generation Volvo S40 and the second generation Ford Focus (not sold in North America).

Plus points are good reliability and build quality and a roomy, well equipped cabin. It's also pleasant to drive, especially with the lively but refined 1.8 and 2.0 engines.
