Mazda3 and Mazda6 take out People's Choice Awards

Australia's top-selling import brand has triumphed in the all-important Small Car and Medium Car categories in the 2007 Carsales Network People's Choice Awards.

For a fifth consecutive year, Mazda6 won the Medium Car category, while Mazda3 took out the Small Car award, for the fourth year in a row.

Now in its sixth sales year, appeal for the current model Mazda6 remains strong ahead of an all-new model expected in Australia in early 2008. As recently as October, Mazda6 was the country's best-selling imported medium car.

The Carsales Network People's Choice Awards, run by Australia's number one automotive classified company, Carsales.com Ltd, are unique in Australia as the only popular poll of car buyers' favourite vehicles.

From November 1, 2006 to October 31, 2007, every time a Carsales Network user placed an enquiry on a new car, whether through carsales.com.au, carpoint.com.au or any of its affiliated websites, the enquiry counted as a vote in the 2007 Carsales Network People's Choice Awards.

Managing Director of Mazda Australia Doug Dickson said: "2007 has seen sweet success for Mazda in Australia. Winning consumer-driven awards such those bestowed by Carsales.com.au is further confirmation that more Australian new-car buyers than ever before are opting for Mazda's award-winning Stylish, Insightful and Spirited vehicles.

"It is also pleasing to see that even as the Mazda6 enters its last months ahead of an all-new model in March 2008 consumer demand for the products has not waned."
