    Default Video: Mazda Shinari concept and Kodo-fied Mazda3 make the scene

    Mazda Shinari Concept - Click above to watch video after the jump

    We're going to go ahead and say it: of all of the companies out there, few demonstrate a command of the concept car quite like Mazda. While most manufacturers seem to be eschewing the concept in favor of thinly-veiled production vehicles, Mazda continues to tantalize the imaginations of onlookers with cars like the Furai. Now, it looks like the company is planning to turn away from its somewhat controversial (read: smiley) Nagare design language in favor of a new theme. Mazda is calling it Kodo, meaning "soul of motion," and if the Shanari Concept is any indication of what we can expect from future models, we're sold.

    Mazda has just rolled out a couple of videos that show off the company's new look. The first features a CG Shanari rolling through crowded city streets, tunnels and the rolling tarmac of what we assume to be the Japanese countryside. The second gives us an idea of what a Kodo-fied Mazda3 might look like. Hit the jump for a quick look see.

    And Mazda saw the light and saved us all from the shame before it was too late.

    I see what they're trying to achieve and I like it.

    [off topic]

    Nirvandan, I get that you're not a fan of the design of the new model. I've only been here a short time and I've already worked that out. But shame?? Really?? C'mon dude, that's harsh.

    I really don't see what the big issue is. I work with a guy who has a Gen I and I think it looks fantastic. I think MY Gen II looks fantastic too. They're different to be sure, but neither is without their own quality. Please stop putting down the Gen II (and indirectly their owners) and let's just all move on

    Take a big breath everyone and count to 3 feel better. I'm stuck for words I just don't know how to put it, I typed so many times and deleted because I don't want to offend anyone, i just which we put it to rest, people say things for a stir and people react just let it go over your head, some people will have a laugh and some will be offended for some reason and it goes the other way. Sorry to rave on it's not hard to ignore if i can do it i'm sure others can.....
